create_merge_bootstrap_key
Engine.create_merge_bootstrap_key(secret_key, stage_count=3, size="medium")- Creates a merge bootstrap key for merge bootstrapping. Requires a secret key. The merge bootstrap key is internally composed of fixed rotation keys for bootstrapping.
- Input
- SecretKey
- stage_count: optional
- Specifies the number of levels used in coefficient to the slot function and the slot to coefficient function of bootstrapping algorithm. The default value is 3, and values from 3 to 5 are supported. The larger the stage count, the faster the bootstrapping, but the lower the level of the final result.
- size: optional
- Specifies the size of the merge bootstrap key. The larger the merge bootstrap key, the faster the merge bootstrap operation.
medium and large are supported. The default value is set to medium.
