etherceo1x1 / CodesBUILD YOUR OWN BLOCKCHAIN: A PYTHON TUTORIAL Download the full Jupyter/iPython notebook from Github here Build Your Own Blockchain – The Basics¶ This tutorial will walk you through the basics of how to build a blockchain from scratch. Focusing on the details of a concrete example will provide a deeper understanding of the strengths and limitations of blockchains. For a higher-level overview, I’d recommend this excellent article from BitsOnBlocks. Transactions, Validation, and updating system state¶ At its core, a blockchain is a distributed database with a set of rules for verifying new additions to the database. We’ll start off by tracking the accounts of two imaginary people: Alice and Bob, who will trade virtual money with each other. We’ll need to create a transaction pool of incoming transactions, validate those transactions, and make them into a block. We’ll be using a hash function to create a ‘fingerprint’ for each of our transactions- this hash function links each of our blocks to each other. To make this easier to use, we’ll define a helper function to wrap the python hash function that we’re using. In [1]: import hashlib, json, sys def hashMe(msg=""): # For convenience, this is a helper function that wraps our hashing algorithm if type(msg)!=str: msg = json.dumps(msg,sort_keys=True) # If we don't sort keys, we can't guarantee repeatability! if sys.version_info.major == 2: return unicode(hashlib.sha256(msg).hexdigest(),'utf-8') else: return hashlib.sha256(str(msg).encode('utf-8')).hexdigest() Next, we want to create a function to generate exchanges between Alice and Bob. We’ll indicate withdrawals with negative numbers, and deposits with positive numbers. We’ll construct our transactions to always be between the two users of our system, and make sure that the deposit is the same magnitude as the withdrawal- i.e. that we’re neither creating nor destroying money. In [2]: import random random.seed(0) def makeTransaction(maxValue=3): # This will create valid transactions in the range of (1,maxValue) sign = int(random.getrandbits(1))*2 - 1 # This will randomly choose -1 or 1 amount = random.randint(1,maxValue) alicePays = sign * amount bobPays = -1 * alicePays # By construction, this will always return transactions that respect the conservation of tokens. # However, note that we have not done anything to check whether these overdraft an account return {u'Alice':alicePays,u'Bob':bobPays} Now let’s create a large set of transactions, then chunk them into blocks. In [3]: txnBuffer = [makeTransaction() for i in range(30)] Next step: making our very own blocks! We’ll take the first k transactions from the transaction buffer, and turn them into a block. Before we do that, we need to define a method for checking the valididty of the transactions we’ve pulled into the block. For bitcoin, the validation function checks that the input values are valid unspent transaction outputs (UTXOs), that the outputs of the transaction are no greater than the input, and that the keys used for the signatures are valid. In Ethereum, the validation function checks that the smart contracts were faithfully executed and respect gas limits. No worries, though- we don’t have to build a system that complicated. We’ll define our own, very simple set of rules which make sense for a basic token system: The sum of deposits and withdrawals must be 0 (tokens are neither created nor destroyed) A user’s account must have sufficient funds to cover any withdrawals If either of these conditions are violated, we’ll reject the transaction. In [4]: def updateState(txn, state): # Inputs: txn, state: dictionaries keyed with account names, holding numeric values for transfer amount (txn) or account balance (state) # Returns: Updated state, with additional users added to state if necessary # NOTE: This does not not validate the transaction- just updates the state! # If the transaction is valid, then update the state state = state.copy() # As dictionaries are mutable, let's avoid any confusion by creating a working copy of the data. for key in txn: if key in state.keys(): state[key] += txn[key] else: state[key] = txn[key] return state In [5]: def isValidTxn(txn,state): # Assume that the transaction is a dictionary keyed by account names # Check that the sum of the deposits and withdrawals is 0 if sum(txn.values()) is not 0: return False # Check that the transaction does not cause an overdraft for key in txn.keys(): if key in state.keys(): acctBalance = state[key] else: acctBalance = 0 if (acctBalance + txn[key]) < 0: return False return True Here are a set of sample transactions, some of which are fraudulent- but we can now check their validity! In [6]: state = {u'Alice':5,u'Bob':5} print(isValidTxn({u'Alice': -3, u'Bob': 3},state)) # Basic transaction- this works great! print(isValidTxn({u'Alice': -4, u'Bob': 3},state)) # But we can't create or destroy tokens! print(isValidTxn({u'Alice': -6, u'Bob': 6},state)) # We also can't overdraft our account. print(isValidTxn({u'Alice': -4, u'Bob': 2,'Lisa':2},state)) # Creating new users is valid print(isValidTxn({u'Alice': -4, u'Bob': 3,'Lisa':2},state)) # But the same rules still apply! True False False True False Each block contains a batch of transactions, a reference to the hash of the previous block (if block number is greater than 1), and a hash of its contents and the header Building the Blockchain: From Transactions to Blocks¶ We’re ready to start making our blockchain! Right now, there’s nothing on the blockchain, but we can get things started by defining the ‘genesis block’ (the first block in the system). Because the genesis block isn’t linked to any prior block, it gets treated a bit differently, and we can arbitrarily set the system state. In our case, we’ll create accounts for our two users (Alice and Bob) and give them 50 coins each. In [7]: state = {u'Alice':50, u'Bob':50} # Define the initial state genesisBlockTxns = [state] genesisBlockContents = {u'blockNumber':0,u'parentHash':None,u'txnCount':1,u'txns':genesisBlockTxns} genesisHash = hashMe( genesisBlockContents ) genesisBlock = {u'hash':genesisHash,u'contents':genesisBlockContents} genesisBlockStr = json.dumps(genesisBlock, sort_keys=True) Great! This becomes the first element from which everything else will be linked. In [8]: chain = [genesisBlock] For each block, we want to collect a set of transactions, create a header, hash it, and add it to the chain In [9]: def makeBlock(txns,chain): parentBlock = chain[-1] parentHash = parentBlock[u'hash'] blockNumber = parentBlock[u'contents'][u'blockNumber'] + 1 txnCount = len(txns) blockContents = {u'blockNumber':blockNumber,u'parentHash':parentHash, u'txnCount':len(txns),'txns':txns} blockHash = hashMe( blockContents ) block = {u'hash':blockHash,u'contents':blockContents} return block Let’s use this to process our transaction buffer into a set of blocks: In [10]: blockSizeLimit = 5 # Arbitrary number of transactions per block- # this is chosen by the block miner, and can vary between blocks! while len(txnBuffer) > 0: bufferStartSize = len(txnBuffer) ## Gather a set of valid transactions for inclusion txnList = [] while (len(txnBuffer) > 0) & (len(txnList) < blockSizeLimit): newTxn = txnBuffer.pop() validTxn = isValidTxn(newTxn,state) # This will return False if txn is invalid if validTxn: # If we got a valid state, not 'False' txnList.append(newTxn) state = updateState(newTxn,state) else: print("ignored transaction") sys.stdout.flush() continue # This was an invalid transaction; ignore it and move on ## Make a block myBlock = makeBlock(txnList,chain) chain.append(myBlock) In [11]: chain[0] Out[11]: {'contents': {'blockNumber': 0, 'parentHash': None, 'txnCount': 1, 'txns': [{'Alice': 50, 'Bob': 50}]}, 'hash': '7c88a4312054f89a2b73b04989cd9b9e1ae437e1048f89fbb4e18a08479de507'} In [12]: chain[1] Out[12]: {'contents': {'blockNumber': 1, 'parentHash': '7c88a4312054f89a2b73b04989cd9b9e1ae437e1048f89fbb4e18a08479de507', 'txnCount': 5, 'txns': [{'Alice': 3, 'Bob': -3}, {'Alice': -1, 'Bob': 1}, {'Alice': 3, 'Bob': -3}, {'Alice': -2, 'Bob': 2}, {'Alice': 3, 'Bob': -3}]}, 'hash': '7a91fc8206c5351293fd11200b33b7192e87fad6545504068a51aba868bc6f72'} As expected, the genesis block includes an invalid transaction which initiates account balances (creating tokens out of thin air). The hash of the parent block is referenced in the child block, which contains a set of new transactions which affect system state. We can now see the state of the system, updated to include the transactions: In [13]: state Out[13]: {'Alice': 72, 'Bob': 28} Checking Chain Validity¶ Now that we know how to create new blocks and link them together into a chain, let’s define functions to check that new blocks are valid- and that the whole chain is valid. On a blockchain network, this becomes important in two ways: When we initially set up our node, we will download the full blockchain history. After downloading the chain, we would need to run through the blockchain to compute the state of the system. To protect against somebody inserting invalid transactions in the initial chain, we need to check the validity of the entire chain in this initial download. Once our node is synced with the network (has an up-to-date copy of the blockchain and a representation of system state) it will need to check the validity of new blocks that are broadcast to the network. We will need three functions to facilitate in this: checkBlockHash: A simple helper function that makes sure that the block contents match the hash checkBlockValidity: Checks the validity of a block, given its parent and the current system state. We want this to return the updated state if the block is valid, and raise an error otherwise. checkChain: Check the validity of the entire chain, and compute the system state beginning at the genesis block. This will return the system state if the chain is valid, and raise an error otherwise. In [14]: def checkBlockHash(block): # Raise an exception if the hash does not match the block contents expectedHash = hashMe( block['contents'] ) if block['hash']!=expectedHash: raise Exception('Hash does not match contents of block %s'% block['contents']['blockNumber']) return In [15]: def checkBlockValidity(block,parent,state): # We want to check the following conditions: # - Each of the transactions are valid updates to the system state # - Block hash is valid for the block contents # - Block number increments the parent block number by 1 # - Accurately references the parent block's hash parentNumber = parent['contents']['blockNumber'] parentHash = parent['hash'] blockNumber = block['contents']['blockNumber'] # Check transaction validity; throw an error if an invalid transaction was found. for txn in block['contents']['txns']: if isValidTxn(txn,state): state = updateState(txn,state) else: raise Exception('Invalid transaction in block %s: %s'%(blockNumber,txn)) checkBlockHash(block) # Check hash integrity; raises error if inaccurate if blockNumber!=(parentNumber+1): raise Exception('Hash does not match contents of block %s'%blockNumber) if block['contents']['parentHash'] != parentHash: raise Exception('Parent hash not accurate at block %s'%blockNumber) return state In [16]: def checkChain(chain): # Work through the chain from the genesis block (which gets special treatment), # checking that all transactions are internally valid, # that the transactions do not cause an overdraft, # and that the blocks are linked by their hashes. # This returns the state as a dictionary of accounts and balances, # or returns False if an error was detected ## Data input processing: Make sure that our chain is a list of dicts if type(chain)==str: try: chain = json.loads(chain) assert( type(chain)==list) except: # This is a catch-all, admittedly crude return False elif type(chain)!=list: return False state = {} ## Prime the pump by checking the genesis block # We want to check the following conditions: # - Each of the transactions are valid updates to the system state # - Block hash is valid for the block contents for txn in chain[0]['contents']['txns']: state = updateState(txn,state) checkBlockHash(chain[0]) parent = chain[0] ## Checking subsequent blocks: These additionally need to check # - the reference to the parent block's hash # - the validity of the block number for block in chain[1:]: state = checkBlockValidity(block,parent,state) parent = block return state We can now check the validity of the state: In [17]: checkChain(chain) Out[17]: {'Alice': 72, 'Bob': 28} And even if we are loading the chain from a text file, e.g. from backup or loading it for the first time, we can check the integrity of the chain and create the current state: In [18]: chainAsText = json.dumps(chain,sort_keys=True) checkChain(chainAsText) Out[18]: {'Alice': 72, 'Bob': 28} Putting it together: The final Blockchain Architecture¶ In an actual blockchain network, new nodes would download a copy of the blockchain and verify it (as we just did above), then announce their presence on the peer-to-peer network and start listening for transactions. Bundling transactions into a block, they then pass their proposed block on to other nodes. We’ve seen how to verify a copy of the blockchain, and how to bundle transactions into a block. If we recieve a block from somewhere else, verifying it and adding it to our blockchain is easy. Let’s say that the following code runs on Node A, which mines the block: In [19]: import copy nodeBchain = copy.copy(chain) nodeBtxns = [makeTransaction() for i in range(5)] newBlock = makeBlock(nodeBtxns,nodeBchain) Now assume that the newBlock is transmitted to our node, and we want to check it and update our state if it is a valid block: In [20]: print("Blockchain on Node A is currently %s blocks long"%len(chain)) try: print("New Block Received; checking validity...") state = checkBlockValidity(newBlock,chain[-1],state) # Update the state- this will throw an error if the block is invalid! chain.append(newBlock) except: print("Invalid block; ignoring and waiting for the next block...") print("Blockchain on Node A is now %s blocks long"%len(chain)) Blockchain on Node A is currently 7 blocks long New Block Received; checking validity... Blockchain on Node A is now 8 blocks long

LOVISHARYX / HRV And GSR As Viable Physiological Markers For Mental Health RecognitionMental stress has become a standard part of day-to-day life. However, experiencing long-term and high-level stress affects the daily life and wellness of the person. Consequently, an individual's performance and management ability degrade significantly in critical situations. Electrocardiogram (ECG), Galvanic Skin Response (GSR), Electromyogram (EMG), Skin Temperature (ST), and Respiration are essential physiological biomarkers to quantify stress effectively. This paper aims to classify the stress level with improved performance based on GSR and ECG-derived Heart Rate Variability (HRV) features using machine and deep learning algorithms. It uses the Stress Recognition in Automobile Drivers (SRAD) dataset, which contains a collection of multiparameter recordings from 17 healthy participants who drive on a prescribed route under various pressure conditions. The work uses Pearson's Correlation, RFECV, and LightGBM feature selection methods with different classifiers to reduce redundancy between features and enhance performance. The accuracy and F1-score for stress level classifications are computed and compared using machine and deep learning algorithms. For binary classification (stress vs. non-stress), Random Forest achieves the best classification accuracy of 93.96 % which is higher than previous works. It also provides an accuracy of 81.41 % for three-class (baseline vs. medium stress vs. high stress) stress level classification.

shaleenx / High Performance ComputingThis repository is dedicated to my course work on the DA-IICT course CS301: High Performance Computing. This repository contains three directories, namely Lab\ Work/ which is my collection of Lab Submissions undertaken as part of the course; 'High-Dimensional-Data-Clustering_HiPC_Parallel_Programming_Challenge_2015', which contains my team's submission in the Intel-Nvidia Parallel Programming Challenge as part of the High Performance Computing Conference Conference, Bangalore 2015, where my team comprised of myself, S. Chaitanya Prasad (@chaitanya94) and Visharad Bansal (@visharad-05); and my project submission for the course which was also on the same topic as the parallel programming challenge but this folder contains a much more detailed analysis. Today, nearly all computing systems including mobile phones, laptops, desktops, supercomputers, and large-scale data centers are being built using multiple-cors processors. Unlike the past, today almost all increases in system performance come from increased parallelism rather than increase in clock frequency. This shift to multi-core chips affects all segments of the IT industry and all areas of Computer Science. To efficiently work with these multi-core processors the users should acquire parallel programming and High Performance Computing (HPC) skills. HPC is also a key driver in the field of data science. This course was an introduction to parallel computing and aims at teaching basic models of parallel programming including the principles of parallel algorithm design, parallel computer architectures, programming models for shared and distributed-memory systems, message passing programming models used for cluster computing along with some important algorithms for parallel systems.
