The receiver communication of this construction consists of a quadratic (in the sender’s input size) number of group elements for a single instance of rate-1 OT. Recently [Garg, Hajiabadi, Ostrovsky, TCC 2020] improved the receiver communication to a linear number of group elements for a single string-OT. However, most applications of rate-1 OT require executing it multiple times, resulting in large communication costs for the receiver.}, publisher = {Springer, Cham}, url = {http://approjects.co.za/?big=en-us/research/publication/amortizing-rate-1-ot-and-applications-to-pir-and-psi/}, pages = {126-156}, }
