Abstract
Reverse k nearest neighbor (RkNN) query has been widely applied in the targeted push of information. Many schemes for the RkNN query on encrypted data have been proposed for coordinating the emerging trend of outsourcing data to the cloud. However, none of them supports the spatial data with many features, a prevalent data type in location-based services, e.g., each user in online dating apps usually has a spatial location and many personality trait features. Meanwhile, incorporating features with the spatial data endows the spatial-feature-based RkNN query to provide more precise services than the spatial-based RkNN query. Therefore, as a steppingstone, we propose an efficient and privacy-preserving spatial-feature-based RkNN scheme in this work for the first time. Specifically, we first design a modified intersection and union R tree (MIUR-tree) to index the spatial and feature data. Then, we introduce an MIUR-tree based RkNN query algorithm in the filter and refinement framework to efficiently process RkNN queries. After that, based on a symmetric homomorphic encryption (SHE) scheme, we design a private filter protocol and a private refinement protocol, and leverage them to propose our RkNN query scheme. Rigorous security analysis demonstrates that our scheme is privacy-preserving, and extensive experiments indicate that our scheme is computationally efficient.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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 it
