Abstract:
A method, apparatus, and computer program product for improved pseudo-random number generation are provided. An example method includes receiving, by a computing device, a request for a pseudo-random number, selecting, by randomization circuitry of the computing device, a first attribute from a biometric attribute dataset, and obtaining a first value for the first attribute. The method further includes selecting, by the randomization circuitry, a second attribute, and obtaining a second value for the second attribute. The method includes convoluting, by convolution circuitry, the first value with the second value to generate the pseudo-random number.
