VKFQ:A Verifiable Keyword Frequency Query Framework with Local Differential Privacy in Blockchain

With its untameable and traceable properties,blockchain technology has been widely used in the field of data sharing.How to preserve individual privacy while enabling efficient data queries is one of the primary issues with secure data sharing.In this paper,we study verifiable keyword frequency(KF)queries with local differential privacy in blockchain.Both the numerical and the keyword attributes are present in data objects;the latter are sensitive and require privacy protection.However,prior studies in blockchain have the problem of trilemma in privacy protection and are unable to handle KF queries.We propose an efficient framework that protects data owners’privacy on keyword attributes while enabling quick and verifiable query processing for KF queries.The framework computes an estimate of a keyword’s frequency and is efficient in query time and verification object(VO)size.A utility-optimized local differential privacy technique is used for privacy protection.The data owner adds noise locally into data based on local differential privacy so that the attacker cannot infer the owner of the keywords while keeping the difference in the probability distribution of the KF within the privacy budget.We propose the VB-cm tree as the authenticated data structure(ADS).The VB-cm tree combines the Verkle tree and the Count-Min sketch(CM-sketch)to lower the VO size and query time.The VB-cm tree uses the vector commitment to verify the query results.The fixed-size CM-sketch,which summarizes the frequency of multiple keywords,is used to estimate the KF via hashing operations.We conduct an extensive evaluation of the proposed framework.The experimental results show that compared to theMerkle B+tree,the query time is reduced by 52.38%,and the VO size is reduced by more than one order of magnitude.

Learned Distributed Query Optimizer:Architecture and Challenges

The query processing in distributed database management systems(DBMS)faces more challenges,such as more operators,and more factors in cost models and meta-data,than that in a single-node DMBS,in which query optimization is already an NP-hard problem.Learned query optimizers(mainly in the single-node DBMS)receive attention due to its capability to capture data distributions and flexible ways to avoid hard-craft rules in refinement and adaptation to new hardware.In this paper,we focus on extensions of learned query optimizers to distributed DBMSs.Specifically,we propose one possible but general architecture of the learned query optimizer in the distributed context and highlight differences from the learned optimizer in the single-node ones.In addition,we discuss the challenges and possible solutions.

A Systematic Review of Automated Classification for Simple and Complex Query SQL on NoSQL Database

A data lake(DL),abbreviated as DL,denotes a vast reservoir or repository of data.It accumulates substantial volumes of data and employs advanced analytics to correlate data from diverse origins containing various forms of semi-structured,structured,and unstructured information.These systems use a flat architecture and run different types of data analytics.NoSQL databases are nontabular and store data in a different manner than the relational table.NoSQL databases come in various forms,including key-value pairs,documents,wide columns,and graphs,each based on its data model.They offer simpler scalability and generally outperform traditional relational databases.While NoSQL databases can store diverse data types,they lack full support for atomicity,consistency,isolation,and durability features found in relational databases.Consequently,employing machine learning approaches becomes necessary to categorize complex structured query language(SQL)queries.Results indicate that the most frequently used automatic classification technique in processing SQL queries on NoSQL databases is machine learning-based classification.Overall,this study provides an overview of the automatic classification techniques used in processing SQL queries on NoSQL databases.Understanding these techniques can aid in the development of effective and efficient NoSQL database applications.

Large Language Model Based Semantic Parsing for Intelligent Database Query Engine

With the rapid development of artificial intelligence, large language models (LLMs) have demonstrated remarkable capabilities in natural language understanding and generation. These models have great potential to enhance database query systems, enabling more intuitive and semantic query mechanisms. Our model leverages LLM’s deep learning architecture to interpret and process natural language queries and translate them into accurate database queries. The system integrates an LLM-powered semantic parser that translates user input into structured queries that can be understood by the database management system. First, the user query is pre-processed, the text is normalized, and the ambiguity is removed. This is followed by semantic parsing, where the LLM interprets the pre-processed text and identifies key entities and relationships. This is followed by query generation, which converts the parsed information into a structured query format and tailors it to the target database schema. Finally, there is query execution and feedback, where the resulting query is executed on the database and the results are returned to the user. The system also provides feedback mechanisms to improve and optimize future query interpretations. By using advanced LLMs for model implementation and fine-tuning on diverse datasets, the experimental results show that the proposed method significantly improves the accuracy and usability of database queries, making data retrieval easy for users without specialized knowledge.

A Database Querying Language for Formulating Relational Queries on Small Devices

For small devices like the PDAs and mobile phones, formulation of relational database queries is not as simple as using conventional devices such as the personal computers and laptops. Due to the restricted size and resources of these smaller devices, current works mostly limit the queries that can be posed by users by having them predetermined by the developers. This limits the capability of these devices in supporting robust queries. Hence, this paper proposes a universal relation based database querying language which is targeted for small devices. The language allows formulation of relational database queries that uses minimal query terms. The formulation of the language and its structure will be described and usability test results will be presented to support the effectiveness of the language.

Exploring features for automatic identification of news queries through query logs

Purpose:Existing researches of predicting queries with news intents have tried to extract the classification features from external knowledge bases,this paper tries to present how to apply features extracted from query logs for automatic identification of news queries without using any external resources.Design/methodology/approach:First,we manually labeled 1,220 news queries from Sogou.com.Based on the analysis of these queries,we then identified three features of news queries in terms of query content,time of query occurrence and user click behavior.Afterwards,we used 12 effective features proposed in literature as baseline and conducted experiments based on the support vector machine(SVM)classifier.Finally,we compared the impacts of the features used in this paper on the identification of news queries.Findings:Compared with baseline features,the F-score has been improved from 0.6414 to0.8368 after the use of three newly-identified features,among which the burst point(bst)was the most effective while predicting news queries.In addition,query expression(qes)was more useful than query terms,and among the click behavior-based features,news URL was the most effective one.Research limitations:Analyses based on features extracted from query logs might lead to produce limited results.Instead of short queries,the segmentation tool used in this study has been more widely applied for long texts.Practical implications:The research will be helpful for general-purpose search engines to address search intents for news events.Originality/value:Our approach provides a new and different perspective in recognizing queries with news intent without such large news corpora as blogs or Twitter.

Query Optimization Framework for Graph Database in Cloud Dew Environment

The query optimizer uses cost-based optimization to create an execution plan with the least cost,which also consumes the least amount of resources.The challenge of query optimization for relational database systems is a combinatorial optimization problem,which renders exhaustive search impossible as query sizes rise.Increases in CPU performance have surpassed main memory,and disk access speeds in recent decades,allowing data compression to be used—strategies for improving database performance systems.For performance enhancement,compression and query optimization are the two most factors.Compression reduces the volume of data,whereas query optimization minimizes execution time.Compressing the database reduces memory requirement,data takes less time to load into memory,fewer buffer missing occur,and the size of intermediate results is more diminutive.This paper performed query optimization on the graph database in a cloud dew environment by considering,which requires less time to execute a query.The factors compression and query optimization improve the performance of the databases.This research compares the performance of MySQL and Neo4j databases in terms of memory usage and execution time running on cloud dew servers.

Application of Recursive Query on Structured Query Language Server

The advantage of recursive programming is that it is very easy to write and it only requires very few lines of code if done correctly.Structured query language(SQL)is a database language and is used to manipulate data.In Microsoft SQL Server 2000,recursive queries are implemented to retrieve data which is presented in a hierarchical format,but this way has its disadvantages.Common table expression(CTE)construction introduced in Microsoft SQL Server 2005 provides the significant advantage of being able to reference itself to create a recursive CTE.Hierarchical data structures,organizational charts and other parent-child table relationship reports can easily benefit from the use of recursive CTEs.The recursive query is illustrated and implemented on some simple hierarchical data.In addition,one business case study is brought forward and the solution using recursive query based on CTE is shown.At the same time,stored procedures are programmed to do the recursion in SQL.Test results show that recursive queries based on CTEs bring us the chance to create much more complex queries while retaining a much simpler syntax.

Visible-infrared person re-identification using query related cluster

Visible-infrared person re-identification(VIPR), is a cross-modal retrieval task that searches a target from a gallery captured by cameras of different spectrums.The severe challenge for VIPR is the large intra-class variation caused by the modal discrepancy between visible and infrared images.For that, this paper proposes a query related cluster(QRC) method for VIPR.Firstly, this paper uses an attention mechanism to calculate the similarity relation between a visible query and infrared images with the same identity in the gallery.Secondly, those infrared images with the same query images are aggregated by using the similarity relation to form a dynamic clustering center corresponding to the query image.Thirdly, QRC loss function is designed to enlarge the similarity between the query image and its dynamic cluster center to achieve query related clustering, so as to compact the intra-class variations.Consequently, in the proposed QRC method, each query has its own dynamic clustering center, which can well characterize intra-class variations in VIPR.Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed QRC method is superior to many state-of-the-art approaches, acquiring a 90.77% rank-1 identification rate on the RegDB dataset.

云边端协同架构中数据类型多样,各级存储资源与计算资源存在差异,给数据管理带来新的挑战.现有数据模型或者数据模型的简单叠加,都难以同时满足云边端中多模态数据管理和协同管理需求.因此,研究面向云边端协同的多模态数据建模技术成为重要问题.其核心在于,如何高效地从云边端三层架构中得到满足应用所需的查询结果.从云边端三层数据的数据类型出发,提出了面向云边端协同的多模态数据建模技术,给出了基于元组的多模态数据模型定义,设计了6种基类,解决多模态数据统一表征困难的问题;提出了云边端协同查询的基本数据操作体系,以满足云边端业务场景的查询需求;给出了多模态数据模型的完整性约束,为查询优化奠定了理论基础.最后,给出了面向云边端协同多模态数据模型的示范应用,并从数据存储时间、存储空间和查询时间这3个方面对所提出的数据模型存储方法进行了验证.实验结果表明,所提方案能够有效地表示云边端协同架构中的多模态数据.

车联网POI查询中的位置隐私和查询隐私联合保护机制

在车联网中,基于位置的服务(LBS)的兴趣点(POI)查询被广泛用于车载应用中。但是,由于攻击者容易获取车辆位置、查询内容以及其它额外信息,单独对位置隐私或查询隐私进行保护很难保障车载用户的隐私安全,使得对位置隐私和查询隐私开展联合保护越发关键。为此,该文提出一种基于虚拟序列的位置隐私和查询隐私联合保护机制。首先根据POI查询的限制,分析位置隐私和查询隐私的相关性,运用欧几里得距离和关联规则算法对其建模描述,得到相关性判断模型;然后基于虚拟序列,根据影响隐私保护的因素和真实查询的相关性值,将联合保护转化为虚拟序列的选择问题,建立联合保护优化模型,得到匿名程度高且匿名区域大的匿名查询集,防止攻击者识别出真实查询。最后,实验结果表明,与现有方案相比,所提联合保护机制能抵御针对位置隐私和查询隐私的联合攻击(语义范围攻击、时间关联攻击和长期观察攻击),能更有效地保护用户的LBS隐私。

一种车载端为主的城市路网当前与未来速度查询方法

城市智能交通管理中经常查询路段的当前和未来交通速度,该文提出一种车载边缘为主(VED)的城市路段速度查询和预测方法:车载端在速度低于一定阈值时,与其它车载端交换收集到的数据,并在本地构建轻量级的当前和历史速度索引,以支持当前速度查询。为了用尽可能少的模型支持速度预测,提出根据路段拓扑同构将路网划分成若干路段等价类,根据周期性时窗和路段等价类将整个时空划分成若干模型等价类,同一个模型等价类的路段在给定时窗呈现相似的交通运行模式。针对每个模型等价类,车载端和数据中心配合进行联邦学习,训练长短期记忆模型(LSTMs)并存储在车载端,以响应车载端对附近未来交通状况的查询。每个车载端本地索引数据、本地响应查询,避免了查询响应延迟和通信拥塞;数据保存在车载端,而非集中存放,避免了安全攻击导致的隐私泄漏。

面向分布式数据库的算子并行优化策略

随着网络技术的不断发展,数据规模呈现爆发式增长,使得传统的单机数据库逐步被分布式数据库所取代。分布式数据库采用节点协同工作方式解决了大规模数据存储问题,但由于增加了节点间通信开销,查询效率却不如单机数据库。分布式架构下,存储节点的数据仅用作多备份的冗余,为系统故障时提供数据恢复,并未被利用起来改善查询效率。针对上述问题,提出了一种面向分布式数据库的算子并行优化策略,通过对关键物理算子进行拆分,将拆分后的子请求均匀分配到存储层多个节点,由多个节点并行处理,从而减少查询响应时间。上述策略已经在分布式数据库CBase上进行了应用,实验表明,提出的并行优化策略可显著缩短SQL请求查询时间,并提高系统资源利用率。
