Non-interactive fuzzy private matching

Two fuzzy private matching protocols are introduced to allow a client to securely compare a list of words to a server list, and discover only those words on the server list that are similar to his, while the server learns nothing. The first protocol achieves perfect client security, while the second achieves almostprivacy and perfect server security. Both protocols are efficient in both communication and computation complexity: for lists of length $n$, only $O(n)$ communication and $O(n^2)$ computation is needed

Some Efficient Solutions to Yao's Millionaire Problem

We present three simple and efficient protocol constructions to solve Yao's Millionaire Problem when the parties involved are non-colluding and semi-honest. The first construction uses a partially homomorphic Encryption Scheme and is a 4-round scheme using 2 encryptions, 2 homomorphic circuit evaluations (subtraction and XOR) and a single decryption. The second construction uses an untrusted third party and achieves a communication overhead linear in input bit-size with the help of an order preserving function.Moreover, the second construction does not require an apriori input bound and can work on inputs of different bit-sizes. The third construction does not use a third party and, even though, it has a quadratic communication overhead, it is a fairly simple construction.Comment: 17 page
