In mathematics, a chaos machine is a class of algorithms constructed on the base of chaos theory (mainly deterministic chaos) to produce random oracle. It represents the idea of creating a universal scheme with modular design and customizable parameters, which can be applied wherever randomness and butterfly effect is needed.
Theoretical model was published in early 2016 by Maciej A. Czyzewski. It was designed specifically to combine the benefits of hash function and pseudo-random function. However, it can be used to implement many cryptographic primitives, including cryptographic hashes, message authentication codes and randomness extractors.
The flexibility of the chaos machine design allows it to be tailored for different applications by adjusting the choice of parameters. For example, the period length of the pseudo-random output can be targeted by selecting the appropriate space parameter.
