Installation Notes

Tensorflow-addons Warnings Error

This error is inconsistent across all systems; some produce it, while others do not. If you are facing this error, open and edit the __init__.py file in the error trackeback, and comment-out lines 19 and 20 (these are the two functions that raise the warnings issue.) The issue has been reported to tensorflow-addons, however, as it is nearing EOL, we see no resolution for this past May 2024.

Image Generation

Images do not come pre-loaded with this service apart from the two files sitting in /temp. If you are looking to generate the images, please run generate_images.py. You will need to load keystroke file data from the online database presented in Monaco's paper.

Database Salting

1. Create the database. This should be done with the database name cisc499. Tables salted_vectors and unsualted_vectors should be created with the following commands: CREATE TABLE salted_vectors ( position INT, user_id VARCHAR(50), array VARCHAR(10000), PRIMARY KEY (user_id) ); CREATE TABLE unsalted_vectors ( position INT, user_id VARCHAR(50), array VARCHAR(10000), PRIMARY KEY (user_id) );
2. Create the user in mysql using: CREATE USER 'integration'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'cisc499'; GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'integration'@'localhost' WITH GRANT OPTION; FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
3. run add_salted_users.py
4. under data_database delete this file.
5. drop and recreate the table unsalted_vectors
