Private information retrieval (PIR) is a protocol that guarantees the privacy of a user who is in communication with databases. The user wants to download one of the messages stored in the databases while hiding the identity of the desired…
We consider the problem of cache-aided multi-user private information retrieval (MuPIR). In this problem, $N$ independent files are replicated across $S \geq 2$ non-colluding servers. There are $K$ users, each equipped with cache memory…
We rethink the definition of privacy in multi-server, graph-replicated private information retrieval (PIR) systems, and introduce a novel setting where the user's privacy is governed by the servers' storage structure. In particular, while…
We consider the problem of private information retrieval (PIR) of a single message out of $K$ messages from $N$ non-colluding and non-replicated databases. Different from the majority of the existing literature, which considers the case of…
Multi-message private information retrieval (MPIR) is an interesting variation of PIR which allows a user to download multiple messages from the database without revealing the identity of the desired messages. Obviously, the user can…
The problem of private information retrieval gets renewed attentions in recent years due to its information-theoretic reformulation and applications in distributed storage systems. PIR capacity is the maximal number of bits privately…
A new computational private information retrieval (PIR) scheme based on random linear codes is presented. A matrix of messages from a McEliece scheme is used to query the server with carefully chosen errors. The server responds with the sum…
Private information retrieval (PIR) protocols allow a user to retrieve entries of a database without revealing the index of the desired item. Information-theoretical privacy can be achieved by the use of several servers and specific…
We study a class of private information retrieval (PIR) methods that we call one-shot schemes. The intuition behind one-shot schemes is the following. The user's query is regarded as a dot product of a query vector and the message vector…
Private Information Retrieval (PIR) schemes enable users to securely retrieve files from a server without disclosing the content of their queries, thereby preserving their privacy. In 2008, Melchor and Gaborit proposed a PIR scheme that…
We consider the problem of private information retrieval (PIR) from multiple storage nodes when the underlying database is encoded using regenerating codes, i.e., the database has the ability to recover from individual node failures. We…
We consider the problem of privately updating a message out of $K$ messages from $N$ replicated and non-colluding databases. In this problem, a user has an outdated version of the message $\hat{W}_\theta$ of length $L$ bits that differ from…
We consider the problem of downloading content from a cellular network where content is cached at the wireless edge while achieving privacy. In particular, we consider private information retrieval (PIR) of content from a library of files,…
Retrieving up-to-date information from a publicly accessible database poses significant threats to the user's privacy. {\em Private information retrieval} (PIR) protocols allow a user to retrieve any entry from a database, without revealing…
In many applications, content accessed by users (movies, videos, news articles, etc.) can leak sensitive latent attributes, such as religious and political views, sexual orientation, ethnicity, gender, and others. To prevent such…
Private Information Retrieval (PIR) is a mechanism for efficiently downloading messages while keeping the index secret. Here, PIRs in which servers do not communicate with each other are called standard PIRs, and PIRs in which some servers…
In a classification task, counterfactual explanations provide the minimum change needed for an input to be classified into a favorable class. We consider the problem of privately retrieving the exact closest counterfactual from a database…
We consider the problem of private information retrieval (PIR) of a single message out of $K$ messages from $N$ replicated and non-colluding databases where a cache-enabled user (retriever) of cache-size $S$ possesses side information in…
Double blind $T$-private information retrieval (DB-TPIR) enables two users, each of whom specifies an index ($\theta_1, \theta_2$, resp.), to efficiently retrieve a message $W(\theta_1,\theta_2)$ labeled by the two indices, from a set of…
We consider a multi-user variant of the private information retrieval problem described as follows. Suppose there are $D$ users, each of which wants to privately retrieve a distinct message from a server with the help of a trusted agent. We…
