Abstract :
This paper studies privacy issues in epidemiology that aims to clarify statistical significant of interested attribute that is distributed into two independent parties. The first proposed protocol computes the size of intersection of two subsets, e.g., set of workers in risk of radiation effect and set of dead people in a period of time, without revealing any of element of set. The second proposed protocol allows to perform a hypothesis test without revealing the size of intersections of two subsets. The performance of the proposed scheme are evaluated based on trial implementation.
