Abstract:

A privacy-preserving point-line relation determination protocol based on additive homomorphism encryption is developed in semi-honest model. The privacy-preserving point-line relation determination protocol can be used to solve many privacy-preserving computational geometry problems, such as segments intersection problem and point inclusion problem. The privacy-preserving point-line relation determination protocol can be also used to determine either the point is at the positive side, negative side, or on the line privately. Further more, the privacy-preserving segments intersection protocol can be used to determine two lines supplied by different users intersect securely; and the privacy-preserving point inclusion protocol can be used to determine the relation of a point and a polygon supplied by different users. Finally, the correctness, security and efficiency of these protocols are analyzed.

Key words: secure multi-party computation, computational geometry, point-line relation determination, additive homomorphic encryption
