Achieve Efficient and Privacy-Preserving Compound Substring Query over Cloud
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The cloud computing technique, which was initially used to mitigate the explosive growth of data, has been required to take both data privacy and users’ query functionality into consideration. Searchable symmetric encryption (SSE) is a popular solution that can support efficient attribute queries over encrypted datasets in the cloud. In particular, some SSE schemes focus on the substring query, which deals with the situation that the user only remembers the substring of the queried attribute. However, all of them just consider substring queries on a single attribute, which cannot be used to achieve compound substring queries on multiple attributes. This paper aims to address this issue by proposing an efficient and privacy-preserving SSE scheme supporting compound substring queries. In specific, we first employ the position heap technique to design a novel tree-based index to support substring queries on a single attribute and employ pseudorandom function (PRF) and fully homomorphic encryption (FHE) techniques to protect its privacy. Then, based on the homomorphism of FHE, we design a filter algorithm to calculate the intersection of search results for different attributes, which can be used to support compound substring queries on multiple attributes. Detailed security analysis shows that our proposed scheme is privacy-preserving. In addition, extensive performance evaluations are also conducted, and the results demonstrate the efficiency of our proposed scheme.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
