摘要: Several applications require truly random bit sequences, whereas physical sources of randomness are at best imperfect. We consider a general model for these slightly-random (e,g. zener diodes), and show how to convert their output into 'random looking ' which we call quasi -random. that quasi-random sequences indistinguishable from ones in strong sense. This enables us prove can be used place such as seeds pseudo-random number generators, randomizing algorithms, stochastic simulation experiments.
