Pseudorandom ensemble
From HandWiki
In cryptography, a pseudorandom ensemble is a family of variables meeting the following criteria:
Let [math]\displaystyle{ U = \{U_n\}_{n \in \mathbb{N}} }[/math] be a uniform ensemble and [math]\displaystyle{ X = \{X_n\}_{n \in \mathbb{N}} }[/math] be an ensemble. The ensemble [math]\displaystyle{ X }[/math] is called pseudorandom if [math]\displaystyle{ X }[/math] and [math]\displaystyle{ U }[/math] are indistinguishable in polynomial time.
