Abstract

Each of a secure computation server apparatuses includes a random number generation part that generates random numbers using a pseudo random number generator shared among the secure computation server apparatuses; a seed storage part that shares and stores a seed(s) used for generating random numbers in the random number generation part; a pre-generated random number storage part that stores random numbers generated by the random number generation part; a share value storage part that stores a share(s) to be a target of processing; a logical operation part that computes a carry to be transmitted and received among the secure computation server apparatuses using the random numbers and the share(s) to be a target of processing; an inner product calculation part that removes a mask from the carry; and an arithmetic operation part that performs a processing of erasing the carry to obtain a processing result.

Claims (60)
