Abstract: The invention introduces an apparatus for detecting errors during data encryption. The apparatus includes a search circuitry and a substitution check circuitry. The key generation circuitry is arranged operably to convert a first value of one byte corresponding to a plaintext, an intermediate encryption result, or a round key into a second value of a K-bit according to an 8-to-K lookup table, where K is an integer ranging from 10 to 15 and the second value comprises (K minus 8) bits of a Hamming parity.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method for auto-depicting trends in object contours (referred to as ADTOC). At the heart of ADTOC is a sifting process to determine a significant angular value via evaluating a plurality of angular values in a predefined range. ADTOC is characterized in that a probe-ahead concept is applied to obtain a reference angular value along the current route, and then the probed angular value is used to modify the significant angular value in order to timely correct the subsequent trace direction, thus achieving more accurate trace result. Contours with discontinuous segments caused by noise, obstacles, illumination, shading variations, etc. can also be auto-depicted without requiring a predefined auxiliary route.
