MLQENABLER: Enabling Secure Machine Learning Queries over Encrypted Database in Cloud Computing2607.08197AuthorsXu Zhou,Haoyang Chen,Xinyu LeiAbstractIn cloud computing, the public cloud service providers (CSPs) can provide cloud storage as the primary service while providing additional machine learning (ML)-based services by using the clients' data in storage. This business model extends the border of cloud computing services and brings in new business growth possibilities. Although it is promising, the model also brings in security concerns since the public commercial cloud cannot be fully trusted. For example, the public commercial clouds may sell clients' sensitive data to the government or other companies. To address the security concerns, an immediate solution is to require clients to encrypt their datasets before outsourcing to the cloud. However, if a database is formally encrypted, then the database contains only pseudorandom numbers, making it impossible to enable ML over it. In this project, we propose MLQENABLER (ML Queries Enabler) scheme to enable secure ML queries over encrypted database in cloud storage. MLQENABLER employs an index-aid approach to achieve security and ML capability simultaneously. Our initial experiments show that MLQENABLER achieves an acceptable security level while incurring only a slight ML performance degradation.ResourcesView on Hugging FaceRead PDFArXiv

ResearchLearning When to Trust via Selective Context Preference Optimization
Language models increasingly condition their answers on external signals, and a single misleading one can turn a correct answer wrong. The obvious remedy, training models to resist such signals, hides a failure mode: a model that ignores all context looks robust yet is useless when the context is worth trusting. We recast the problem as selective trust and introduce MIST, a human-annotated benchmark that renders each reasoning item under four matched conditions (clean, misleading, correct-context, and irrelevant-context), together with SC2W, a paired metric counting how often a misle

ResearchTracing the Heart: An Evidence-Linked Pipeline for Heart-Failure Feature Engineering
Electronic health record (EHR) feature engineering is a major bottleneck in clinical research and AI, accounting for 39-45% of data scientists' workload. This is especially pronounced in heart failure, which affects an estimated 6.7 million U.S. adults and requires integrating fragmented EHR data with disease-specific, guideline-based clinical reasoning. Existing rule-based and large language model (LLM)-based approaches offer only partial automation with limited maintainability and evidence traceability. We developed the Nimblemind Multi-Agent System (nMAS), an evidence-linked, rubr
