Generating security curves

In the below link wherefrom do we import the estimator
and by sage I hope it is sagemath (does installing any of its version work?)

github.com

zama-ai/concrete/blob/main/tools/parameter-curves/lattice-scripts/compare_curves_and_estimator.py

import os
import sys
from estimator import LWE, ND, RC
from sage.all import oo, load, floor, ceil
from generate_data import estimate, get_security_level
import argparse


LOG_N_MAX = 17 + 1
LOG_N_MIN = 10

def get_index(sec, curves):

Hi @Laser_beam!

The lattice estimator is located in concrete/third_party. I would recommend using the commands in the Makefile located at concrete/tools/parameter-curves/Makefile, as this handles the import via:

LATTICE_ESTIMATOR_DIR=$(PWD)/../../third_party/lattice-estimator.

You are right that we are referring to SageMath – I would recommend installing the most recent version.

Happy to answer any more questions you may have.

Thanks,

Ben

Thanks but I would love to see the outputs through jupyter file…How do I import estimator from any directory I am working in…

Hi @Laser_beam – one way to do this is to do:


import sys
sys.path.insert(0,'path_to_estimator_folder')
from estimator import *

Thanks,

Ben
