They apply one of those to an improved linear attack of full round DES and describe an improved algorithm by combining the nonlinear approximation method proposed by {\it L. Knudsen} and {\it M. Robshaw} [Eurocrypt’96, Lect. Notes Comput. Sci. 1070, 224-236 (1996)], and the multiple approximation method proposed by {\it B. Kaliski} and {\it M. Robshaw} [CRYPTO’94, Lect. Notes Comput. Sci. 839, 26-38 (1994)]. This improvement can reduce the number of required plaintexts and ciphertexts pairs to 25/34 (73.5 \%) of those number of pairs $2^{43}$ required in the linear attack by M. Matsui. rv:
