Abstract:

Big data mining-driven disease risk prediction has become one of the important topics in the field of e-healthcare. However, without the security and privacy assurances, disease risk prediction cannot continue to flourish. To address this challenge, in this paper, an efficient and privacy-preserving disease risk prediction scheme for e-healthcare is proposed, hereafter referred to as EPDP. Compared with the up-to-date works, the proposed EPDP comprehensively achieves two phases of disease risk prediction, i.e., disease model training and disease prediction, while ensuring the privacy preservation. Specifically, a super-increasing sequence is combined with a homomorphic cryptographic algorithm to efficiently extract the symptom set of each disease in the phase of disease model training. Bloom filter technique is introduced to compute the prediction result in the phase of disease risk prediction. Besides, extensive performance evaluations demonstrate that our proposed EPDP attains outstanding efficiency advantage over the state-of-the-art in terms of both computational and communication overheads, and hence our EPDP is more suitable for real-time e-healthcare, especially medical emergency.
