A lightweight privacy-preserving truth discovery mechanism for IoT by Yingjie HE, Qiwei LI, Han SUN, Di GAO, Jianfeng DONG, Shuhua YANG

“…In order to solve diverse quality and privacy leakage of perceived data in fog-cloud integrated internet of things (IoT), a streaming encryption-based privacy-preserving truth discovery mechanism for IoT was proposed.Firstly, by utilizing shuffling and streaming encryption algorithms, the ground truths and the weights were anonymously updated on the cloud server and fog server, respectively, so that the collusion attacks between malicious attackers and cloud or fog servers could be resisted to defend against privacy leakage of IoT devices.Secondly, by adopting the Softmax function, the device weights were calculated on fog server, which reduces the error rate for calculating the ground truths.Finally, the theoretical analysis proved that the mechanism could protect privacy of the devices.And, the experimental results demonstrate that the proposed mechanism is an effective privacy-preserving trust discovery mechanism for large-scale IoT devices, which can outperform existing ones in computing efficiency.…”

Result aggregation algorithm based on differential evolution and Top-k ranking in learning Worker’s weight by Yuping XING, Yongzhao ZHAN

“…To solve the problem of quickly obtaining the optimal ranking result in the crowdsourcing result aggregation, an efficient and effective aggregation algorithm of Worker’s weight was proposed.The Worker’s weight optimization model based on differential evolution algorithm focused on the uncertainties and differences of Workers completing ranking tasks, the uncertainties and differences were reflected in the objective function and constraint conditions of the model.This model obtained the optimal weight of candidate results, and maximized the matching between Worker’s weight and result performance.Then, the optimization model solving method based on Top-k ranking was proposed to quickly obtain the optimal Worker’s weight with the appropriate k value for specific multi-data items ranking scenario.The optimization of Worker’s weight could realize optimized performance and speed of the result aggregation.The correctness of the algorithm is verified by qualitative analysis, the effectiveness and efficiency of the algorithm is verified by the simulation results, and the comparison with the relevant algorithms shows the optimal comprehensive performance of the algorithm.…”
