Abstract(in English) One of the security features for designing hash functions is collision resistance. It means that it is difficult to find a pair of messages producing the same hash value. Before analyzing a hash function through searching for collision resistances, we need to examine the randomness of hash values as a first step in determining whether a hash system is suitable for generating appropriate random hash values. This paper performs a statistical test for randomness of hash values that are produced by quaternion based hash function (QHF). The evolution test is based on NIST SP800-22 evaluated method for statistical randomness. The obtained results show that we need to reconsider the design of QHF to meet highest requirements for building a secure hash function.
