2022 Server-aided multiparty private set intersection protocols for lightweight clients and the application in intelligent logistics
abstract
In numerous data application scenarios, various data can be represented in the form of data sets, and the intersection is often the common concern of multiple users. Using private set intersection (PSI) protocol, users can securely compute the intersection of their sets without disclosing their private input and other additional information. At the same time, there is also a strong practical demand for statistical analysis of intersection data. However, when multiple parties are involved, the efficiency of the multiparty PSI protocol decreases dramatically as the number of users increases. In this paper, we construct a novel server-aided multiparty PSI protocol, which can transform the complex multiparty computation problem into an efficient two-party computation problem. In addition, we design a series of server-aided party PSI statistical protocols to compute the statistics of the intersection elements, such as the sum, average, variance, range (maximum, minimum), and the cardinality of intersection (the size of intersection). In our protocol, the clients only need to upload their private data to the servers in blinded form and do not need to keep online during server computing. Experiments show that our protocol has high computation and communication efficiency and is suitable for lightweight clients. In addition, we also introduce an application of our protocols in the field of intelligent logistics.

2022 Privacy-preserving statistical computing protocols for private set intersection
abstract
With the rapid development of Internet and the widespread application of distributed computing, people enjoy various conveniences while at the same time their privacy has also been threatened. Secure multiparty computation (MPC) can solve the problem of how data owners who do not trust each other jointly compute in distributed scenarios. Using MPC technique, people can not only realize data joint computing, but also ensure data privacy. In most data application scenarios, private data held by different parties can often be represented by sets. To complete the relevant statistical computations of the intersection of two private sets, we propose a suite of protocols based on MPC. These protocols can compute the statistical functions of the associated data of the intersection, including cardinality, sum, average, variance, range, and so forth, without revealing any additional information other than the result. To achieve these functions, we design a private membership test protocol with the result as the arithmetic sharing value, called the arithmetic shared private membership test (ASPMT) protocol. On the basis of the ASPMT protocol, the size and other statistics of the intersection can be computed securely and efficiently. All fundamental computations are constructed based on secret sharing and oblivious transfer techniques. Thanks to the use of precomputation technique, all protocols are highly efficient.

2022 PPCNN: An efficient privacy-preserving CNN training and inference framework
abstract
Convolutional neural network (CNN) is one of the representative models of deep learning, commonly used to analyze visual images. CNN model is more accurate when trained on large amounts of data from multiple sources, and the huge training cost makes the model much more valuable. However, data from various sources is often privacy-sensitive. Therefore, the privacy of these data should be protected during CNN model training and inference. In this paper, we propose an efficient and secure two-party computation (2PC) framework PPCNN for privacy-preserving CNN training and inference. Specifically, we use a new secret sharing technique introduced in ABY2.0 to securely compute various computational tasks involved in the CNN training and inference processes. This secret sharing technique can significantly reduce the communication overhead. Meanwhile, we assign these computationally intensive tasks to cloud servers to reduce the computational burden on local devices. We demonstrate the security of these protocols in the semihonest model. In addition, we use the MP-SPDZ library to simulate our PPCNN framework, and the experiments prove its high efficiency and accuracy.
