DESCRIPTION:Secure multi-party computation (MPC) allows multiple parties\
 , each holding private data that they are unwilling to share\, to collab
 orate to perform computations over their data\, while revealing nothing 
 other than the result.  The theory behind secure computation is already 
 35 years old\, but in the last 15 years researchers in the field have de
 monstrated tremendous improvement in performance.  Today\, a confluence 
 of factors are driving an increased interest in secure computation\, bot
 h in the public domain and in industry\, including the advancements in M
 PC mentioned above\, the explosion in the volume of private user data be
 ing generated\, and the advancements in machine learning that are being 
 deployed to leverage that private data.  &#13\;\n&#13\;\nIn this talk\, 
 I will give an overview of several of my recent results that has helped 
 scale the performance of secure computation.  In the first half of the t
 alk\, I will focus on the setting where we have large volumes of data an
 d a secure computation that is out-source to a small number of servers —
  the Few-PC setting.  I will focus on a security relaxation that allows 
 us to improve communication costs asymptotically and concretely for a la
 rge class of computations.  In the second half of the talk\, I will desc
 ribe several results that allow us to scale MPC to thousands or even mil
 lions of parties\, by demonstrating a protocol that requires less commun
 ication and computation from each participant as the number of participa
 nts grows.\n\nTags: galois\, tech talk\, Dov Gordon\n\nImported from: ht
