Latest Patents

Liang is associated with 1 patent: “Privacy Calculation Unit, Acceleration Unit, System on Chip, and Privacy Calculation Method.” The invention describes a privacy calculation unit with calculation, storage, and communication subunits. The calculation subunit sequentially computes intermediate ciphertexts used to convert data from one privacy-preserving computation domain to another, while the storage subunit retains those ciphertexts. During the calculation process, the communication subunit sends an earlier, or preorder, ciphertext to another privacy calculation unit. That unit can use the ciphertext to generate converted data in the second domain.
