Almost separating and almost secure frameproof codes
Marcel Fernández, Grigory A. Kabatiansky, José E. Moreira · 2011
The theory of separating codes has been applied in several areas of science ranging from automata synthesis to the protection of distribution rights. In this paper, we introduce a relaxed version of separating and secure frameproof codes and show that for the relaxed definitions these two notions are different, as opposed to the original definitions when these notions coincide. Moreover, we also discuss how this new relaxed versions of the codes can be used to construct a family of fingerprinting codes.
