LDSieve is open-source software distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License. See the file LICENSE for complete details on the licensing. LDSieve is a prototype implementation of the Lattice Sieve Algorithm described in the paper
["New directions in nearest neighbor searching with applications to lattice sieving", Anja Becker and Léo Ducas and Nicolas Gama and Thijs Laarhoven]
The code is released as an effort to stimulate new research and efficient implementations in the concerned fields, namely Lattice reduction algorithm, and Nearest Neighbor Search algorithms. The codes comes with no warranty. Additionally, we provide the benchmarking procedure and the instances used in the paper for reproducibility.
The code require NTL to be installed in your home directory (if installed somewhere else, update the Makefile).
The Benchmark script requires python.
Make.
In the Benchmark/ subdirectory, run python Benchmark.py .44 .44 > 44.bench
