Abstract

Pseudorandom sequences are widely used in cryptography. Multiple recursive generators are an important class of pseudorandom sequence generators. A typical application is to obtain truncated sequences by truncating partial bits of the sequences output by the generators. This paper studies the predictability of truncated multiple recursive generators with unknown parameters. Given a few truncated digits of high-order bits output by a multiple recursive generator, we give a method based on lattice reduction to recover the parameters and the initial state of the generator. Our method is an extension of Stern’s algorithm which was proposed to predict the truncated sequences of linear congruential generators.
