多消息私有信息检索:容量结果和近优方案

Multi-Message Private Information Retrieval: Capacity Results and Near-Optimal Schemes

Karim Banawan, Sennur Ulukus

摘要:

研究了$N$非通信复制数据库中多消息私有信息检索(MPIR)问题。在MPIR中,用户感兴趣的是从$M$存储的消息中检索$P$消息,而不泄漏检索到的消息的身份。MPIR $C_s^P$的信息理论总容量是每个下载符号可以私下检索的所需消息符号的最大数量。对于$P \geq \frac{M}{2}$的情况,我们将MPIR的确切容量和确定为$C_s^P=\frac{1}{1+\frac{M-P}{PN}}$。在这种情况下,可实现的方案是基于下载所有消息的MDS编码混合物。对于$P \leq \frac{M}{2}$,我们开发了所有$M,P,N$的上下界。如果消息的总数$M$是期望消息的数目$P$的整数倍,即,$\frac{M}{P} \in \mathbb{N}$。在这种情况下,是$C_s^P=\frac{1-\frac{1}{N}}{1-(\frac{1}{N})^{M/P}}$。在这种情况下,可实现的方案将单消息容量实现方案推广为每轮下载具有不平衡的阶段数。对于所有其余情况,下限和上限之间的差至多为$0.0082$,这发生在$M=5$、$P=2$、$N=2$。我们的研究结果表明,联合检索所需的消息是更有效的比连续使用单消息检索计划。

英文摘要:

We consider the problem of multi-message private information retrieval (MPIR) from $N$ non-communicating replicated databases. In MPIR, the user is interested in retrieving $P$ messages out of $M$ stored messages without leaking the identity of the retrieved messages. The information-theoretic sum capacity of MPIR $C_s^P$ is the maximum number of desired message symbols that can be retrieved privately per downloaded symbol. For the case $P \geq \frac{M}{2}$, we determine the exact sum capacity of MPIR as $C_s^P=\frac{1}{1+\frac{M-P}{PN}}$. The achievable scheme in this case is based on downloading MDS-coded mixtures of all messages. For $P \leq \frac{M}{2}$, we develop lower and upper bounds for all $M,P,N$. These bounds match if the total number of messages $M$ is an integer multiple of the number of desired messages $P$, i.e., $\frac{M}{P} \in \mathbb{N}$. In this case, $C_s^P=\frac{1-\frac{1}{N}}{1-(\frac{1}{N})^{M/P}}$. The achievable scheme in this case generalizes the single-message capacity achieving scheme to have unbalanced number of stages per round of download. For all the remaining cases, the difference between the lower and upper bound is at most $0.0082$, which occurs for $M=5$, $P=2$, $N=2$. Our results indicate that joint retrieval of desired messages is more efficient than successive use of single-message retrieval schemes.
