Probabilistic databases and database outsourcing are two recent and important applications of database systems. In this paper, we introduce authenticated query processing in outsourced probabilistic databases. We have proposed a novel authenticated data structure (ADS) called PH-tree, which is a combination of PDR-tree and MH-tree.We have also implemented k-means clustering as a preprocessor. We have compared our algorithm with an existing ADS called MR-tree and showed that PH-trees outperform MR-trees significantly.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
