Abstract

Two neural networks that are trained on their mutual output synchronize to an identical time dependant weight vector. This novel phenomenon can be used for creation of a secure cryptographic secret-key using a public channel. Several models for this cryptographic system have been suggested, and have been tested for their security under different sophisticated attack strategies. The most promising models are networks that involve chaos synchronization. The synchronization process of mutual learning is described analytically using statistical physics methods.
