Abstract
Physically unclonable functions (PUFs) identify integrated circuits using
nonlinearly-related challenge-response pairs (CRPs). Ideally, the relationship
between challenges and corresponding responses is unpredictable, even if a
subset of CRPs is known. Previous work developed a photonic PUF offering
improved security compared to non-optical counterparts. Here, we investigate
this PUF's susceptibility to Multiple-Valued-Logic-based machine learning
attacks. We find that approximately 1,000 CRPs are necessary to train models
that predict response bits better than random chance. Given the significant
challenge of acquiring a vast number of CRPs from a photonic PUF, our results
demonstrate photonic PUF resilience against such attacks.
