In this paper, we present a new partially blind signature scheme and prove the security under the Ring-SIS assumption in the random oracle model. To avoid the restart problem of signature schemes caused by rejection sampling, a large number of random numbers are sampled in advance, so that they only need to be re-selected at the current stage without terminating the whole signature process when the conditions are not met. In addition, the hash tree technology is used to reduce communication costs and improve interactive performance. In order to avoid the errors in the security proof of the previous scheme, our proof builds upon and extends the modular framework for blind signatures of Hauck et al. and the correctness, partial blindness, and one-more unforgeability of the scheme are proved in detail according to the properties of the linear hash function.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100790,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Information and Intelligence","volume":"2 3","pages":"Pages 236-252"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2949715924000155/pdfft?md5=b4f02711a72cc18ef1aaa3009a5e29c6&pid=1-s2.0-S2949715924000155-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140272837","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To improve the performance of packet transmission in the 3D high dynamic FANETs, we propose a 3D greedy perimeter stateless routing (GPSR) algorithm using adaptive Kalman prediction for FANETs with omnidirectional antenna (KOGPSR). Especially, in data forwarding part of the KOGPSR, we propose a new link metric for greedy forwarding based on a torus-shaped radiation pattern of the omnidirectional antenna of UAVs, and a restricted flooding strategy is introduced to solve the 3D void node problem in geographic routing. In addition, in order to enhance the accuracy of the location information of high dynamic UAVs, we design an adaptive Kalman algorithm to track and predict the motion of UAVs. Finally, a FANET simulation platform based on OPNET is built to depict the performance of the KOGPSR algorithm. The simulation results show that the proposed KOGPSR algorithm is more suitable for the actual 3D high dynamic FANET.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100790,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Information and Intelligence","volume":"2 3","pages":"Pages 191-208"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2949715923000719/pdfft?md5=2b18cbef163ce52128b820ccdbf4100b&pid=1-s2.0-S2949715923000719-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138613868","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Due to the serious privacy risks, MI attacks have been attracting a tremendous amount of attention in the research community. One existing work conducted — to our best knowledge — the first dedicated survey study in this specific area: The survey provides a comprehensive review of the literature during the period of 2017∼2021 (e.g., over 100 papers). However, due to the tremendous amount of progress (i.e., 176 papers) made in this area since 2021, the survey conducted by the one existing work has unfortunately already become very limited in the following two aspects: (1) Although the entire literature from 2017∼2021 covers 18 ways to categorize (all the proposed) MI attacks, the literature during the period of 2017∼2021, which was reviewed in the one existing work, only covered 5 ways to categorize MI attacks. With 13 ways missing, the survey conducted by the one existing work only covers 27% of the landscape (in terms of how to categorize MI attacks) if a retrospective view is taken. (2) Since the literature during the period of 2017∼2021 only covers 27% of the landscape (in terms of how to categorize), the number of new insights (i.e., why an MI attack could succeed) behind all the proposed MI attacks has been significantly increasing since year 2021. As a result, although none of the previous work has made the insights as a main focus of their studies, we found that the various insights leveraged in the literature can be broken down into 10 groups. Without making the insights as a main focus, a survey study could fail to help researchers gain adequate intellectual depth in this area of research. In this work, we conduct a systematic study to address these limitations. In particular, in order to address the first limitation, we make the 13 newly emerged ways to categorize MI attacks as a main focus on the study. In order to address the second limitation, we provide — to our best knowledge — the first review of the various insights leveraged in the entire literature. We found that the various insights leveraged in the literature can be broken down into 10 groups.

We also use signed number representation to save memory resources.

However, encryption reduces data availability, making it more challenging to provide POI recommendation services in outsourcing scenarios. Some privacy-preserving schemes for geo-social-based POI recommendation have been presented, but they have some limitations in supporting group query, considering both geographic and social factors, and query accuracy, making these schemes impractical. To solve this issue, we propose two practical and privacy-preserving geo-social-based POI recommendation schemes for single user and group users, which are named GSPR-S and GSPR-G.
