Folding-Based Zero-Knowledge Proofs of Post-Quantum SignaturesThis project involves the design and development of folding-based R1CS circuits which encode the verification algorithms of the post-quantum signature schemes ML-DSA and Falcon. We will also develop regular R1CS circuits for PQ signature verification which do not use folding, to quantify the improvements due to folding. Our end goal is to demonstrate that folding-based R1CS circuits for PQ signature verification can be proved and verified using significantly less computational resources compared to regular R1CS circuits.1. Rust programming 2. Cryptography

ProjCode-003Prof. Devashish GosainCookie banner perception: how accurately they summarize the policy page?With the implementation of various privacy laws, website publishers are required to display cookie banners offering users the option to opt out of tracking and to access their privacy policies. However, these banners are often written in vague language or fail to accurately reflect the website’s actual policies, thereby creating a false sense of privacy. This project aims to quantitatively and qualitatively investigate such discrepancies. Our goal is to develop automated solutions that can identify cookie banners and assess their alignment with the corresponding privacy policy page of the website.1.Students with network course 2.

ProjCode-004Prof. Chethan KamathWatermarking Language ModelsIn this project we will explore some of the recent attempts at watermarking large language models with provable guarantees. The project will be theoretical in nature. Some of the works we will look into are https://ia.cr/2024/759 and https://ia.cr/2024/235.
