Permutation of Web Search Query Types for User Intent Privacy
Journal Title: International Journal of Advanced Computer Science & Applications - Year 2017, Vol 8, Issue 1
Abstract
Privacy remains a major concern when using search engines to find for information on the web due to the fact that search engines own massive resources in preserving search logs of each user and organizations. However, many of the present query search privacy practices require the very same search engine and third party to collaborate, making privacy even more difficult. Therefore, as a contribution, we present a heuristic, permutation of web search query types, a non-cryptographic heuristic that works by formation of obfuscated search queries via permutation of query keyword categories. Preliminary results from this study show that web search query and specific user intent privacy might be achievable from the user side without involvement of the search engine or other third parties by the permutation of web search query types.

Predicting CO2 Emissions from Farm Inputs in Wheat Production using Artificial Neural Networks and Linear Regression Models
Two models have been developed for simulating CO2 emissions from wheat farms: (1) an artificial neural network (ANN) model; and (2) a multiple linear regression model (MLR). Data were collected from 40 wheat farms in the...
