Research on secure scalar product protocol and its' application

Abstract

Secure scalar product protocol is an important fundamental protocol in secure multi-party computation. Serving as a basic building block for many other secure protocols, it is widely used in data mining, statistical analysis and scientific computation. Based on additive homomorphism public key cryp-tosystem, we develop a new secure scalar product protocol under semi-honest model with low communication complexity which is easy to implement and understanding. Furthermore, we firstly apply it to position relationship decision for privacy preserving space vectors. © 2010 IEEE.
