Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for homomorphic encryption. In one implementation, the methods include inputting first data into a recurrent artificial neural network, identifying patterns of activity in the recurrent artificial neural network that are responsive to the input of the secure data, storing second data representing whether the identified patterns of activity comports with topological patterns, and statistically analyzing the second data to draw conclusions about the first data.

Abstract: Distance metrics and clustering in recurrent neural networks. For example, a method includes determining whether topological patterns of activity in a collection of topological patterns occur in a recurrent artificial neural network in response to input of first data into the recurrent artificial neural network, and determining a distance between the first data and either second data or a reference based on the topological patterns of activity that are determined to occur in response to the input of the first data.

Abstract: In one aspect, a method includes generating a functional subgraph of a network from a structural graph of the network. The structural graph comprises a set of vertices and structural connections between the vertices. Generating the functional subgraph includes identifying a directed functional edge of the functional subgraph based on presence of structural connection and directional communication of information across the same structural connection.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for encrypting and decrypting data. In one implementation, an encryption method includes inputting plaintext into a recurrent artificial neural network, identifying topological structures in patterns of activity in the recurrent artificial neural network, wherein the patterns of activity are responsive to the input of the plaintext, representing the identified topological structures in a binary sequence of length L and implementing a permutation of the set of all binary codewords of length L. The implemented permutation is a function from the set of binary codewords of length L to itself that is injective and surjective.
