Abstract In recent years, the research field of data collection under local differential privacy (LDP) has expanded its focus from elementary data types to include more complex structural data, such as set-value and graph data. However, our comprehensive review of existing literature reveals that there needs to be more studies that engage with key-value data collection. Such studies would simultaneously collect the frequencies of keys and the mean of values associated with each key. Additionally, the allocation of the privacy budget between the frequencies of keys and the means of values for each key does not yield an optimal utility tradeoff.… More >

Abstract The key-value store can provide flexibility of data types because it does not need to specify the data types to be stored in advance and can store any types of data as the value of the key-value pair. Various types of studies have been conducted to improve the performance of the key-value store while maintaining its flexibility. However, the research efforts storing the large-scale values such as multimedia data files (e.g., images or videos) in the key-value store were limited. In this study, we propose a new key-value store, WR-Store++ aiming to store the large-scale values stably. Specifically, it provides… More >
