The task of calculating similarities between strings held by different organizations without revealing these strings is an increasingly important problem in areas such as health informatics, national censuses, genomics, and fraud detection.…
The discovery of novel materials and functional molecules can help to solve some of society's most urgent challenges, ranging from efficient energy harvesting and storage to uncovering novel pharmaceutical drug candidates. Traditionally…
Searching accounts for one of the most frequently performed computations over the Internet as well as one of the most important applications of outsourced computing, producing results that critically affect users' decision-making behaviors.…
Search-Based Software Engineering (SBSE) is a promising paradigm that exploits the computational search to optimize different processes when engineering complex software systems. Self-adaptive system (SAS) is one category of such complex…
We present eSapiens, an AI-as-a-Service (AIaaS) platform engineered around a business-oriented trifecta: proprietary data, operational workflows, and any major agnostic Large Language Model (LLM). eSapiens gives businesses full control over…
Searchable symmetric encryption (SSE) for multi-owner model draws much attention as it enables data users to perform searches over encrypted cloud data outsourced by data owners. However, implementing secure and precise query, efficient…
Search engines are the most important tools for web data acquisition. Web pages are crawled and indexed by search Engines. Users typically locate useful web pages by querying a search engine. One of the challenges in search engines…
While storing documents on the cloud can be attractive, the question remains whether cloud providers can be trusted with storing private documents. Even if trusted, data breaches are ubiquitous. To prevent information leakage one can store…
Organisations disclose their privacy practices by posting privacy policies on their website. Even though users often care about their digital privacy, they often don't read privacy policies since they require a significant investment in…
Text-to-Speech (TTS) and Voice Conversion (VC) models have exhibited remarkable performance in generating realistic and natural audio. However, their dark side, audio deepfake poses a significant threat to both society and individuals.…
Searchable Encryption (SE) enables users to query outsourced encrypted data while preserving data confidentiality. However, most efficient schemes still leak the search pattern and access pattern, which may allow an honest-but-curious cloud…
Searchable symmetric encryption (SSE) has been used to protect the confidentiality of genomic data while providing substring search and range queries on a sequence of genomic data, but it has not been studied for protecting single…
The sparse vector technique is a powerful differentially private primitive that allows an analyst to check whether queries in a stream are greater or lesser than a threshold. This technique has a unique property -- the algorithm works by…
We propose a privacy-preserving Naive Bayes classifier and apply it to the problem of private text classification. In this setting, a party (Alice) holds a text message, while another party (Bob) holds a classifier. At the end of the…
Recent studies have shown that large language models (LLMs) can infer private user attributes (e.g., age, location, gender) from user-generated text shared online, enabling rapid and large-scale privacy breaches. Existing…
State-of-the-art important passage retrieval methods obtain very good results, but do not take into account privacy issues. In this paper, we present a privacy preserving method that relies on creating secure representations of documents.…
Traditional approaches to vector similarity search over encrypted data rely on fully homomorphic encryption (FHE) to enable computation without decryption. However, the substantial computational overhead of FHE makes it impractical for…
With the proliferation of digital content and the need for efficient information retrieval, this study's insights can be applied to various domains, including news services, e-commerce, and digital marketing, to provide users with more…
Large genomic datasets are now created through numerous activities, including recreational genealogical investigations, biomedical research, and clinical care. At the same time, genomic data has become valuable for reuse beyond their…
Sequential data is everywhere, and it can serve as a basis for research that will lead to improved processes. For example, road infrastructure can be improved by identifying bottlenecks in GPS data, or early diagnosis can be improved by…
