Optimal Download Cost of Private Information Retrieval for Arbitrary Message Length
[article]
2016
arXiv
pre-print
In this work, for arbitrary K, N, we explore the minimum download cost D_L across all PIR schemes (not restricted to linear schemes) for arbitrary message lengths L under arbitrary choices of alphabet ...
A private information retrieval scheme is a mechanism that allows a user to retrieve any one out of K messages from N non-communicating replicated databases, each of which stores all K messages, without ...
However, since in practice the message length parameter L can be arbitrary, an important question that remains open is to determine optimal download cost and rate values for arbitrary fixed values of L ...

The Capacity of Private Information Retrieval with Partially Known Private Side Information
[article]
2017
arXiv
pre-print
We consider the problem of private information retrieval (PIR) of a single message out of K messages from N replicated and non-colluding databases where a cache-enabled user (retriever) of cache-size M ...
In the retrieval phase, the user wishes to retrieve a message such that no individual database learns anything about the identity of the desired message. ...
The efficiency of a PIR scheme is measured by the normalized download cost, which is the cost of privately downloading one bit of the desired message. ...

We first show that the PSI problem can be recast as a multi-message symmetric private information retrieval (MM-SPIR) problem. ...
Based on this capacity result for MM-SPIR, and after addressing the added requirements in its conversion to the PSI problem, we show that the optimal download cost for the PSI problem is min{⌈P_1 N_2/N ...

Cache-Aided Private Information Retrieval with Partially Known Uncoded Prefetching: Fundamental Limits
[article]
2017
arXiv

We investigate the optimal normalized download cost D^*(r) in the retrieval phase as a function of K, N, r. We develop lower and upper bounds for the optimal download cost. ...
This model operates in a two-phase scheme, namely, the prefetching phase where the user acquires side information and the retrieval phase where the user privately downloads the desired message. ...

The Asymptotic Capacity of Private Search
[article]
2018
arXiv
pre-print
The results are based on the asymptotic behavior of a new converse bound for private information retrieval with arbitrarily dependent messages. ...
The capacity of private search is the maximum number of bits of desired information that can be retrieved per bit of download. ...
Since the upload cost of private search does not depend on L while the download cost scales linearly with L, the communication cost of private search for large L is dominated by the download cost. ...
