This paper proposes a privacy-preserving hitchhiking task assignment scheme for spatial crowdsourcing (SC), called PKGS. It protects the location privacy of workers and tasks, and assigns tasks to workers with the shortest travel distance.
Privacy-preserving task assignment is vital to assign a task to appropriate workers and protect workers' privacy or task privacy for spatial crowdsourcing (SC). Existing solutions usually require each worker to travel to the task location on purpose to perform this task, which fails to consider that workers have specific trajectories and carry out the task on their way in a hitchhiking manner. To this end, this paper proposes a privacy-preserving hitchhiking task assignment scheme for SC, named PKGS. Specifically, we formulate the privacy-preserving hitchhiking task assignment as a decision problem of the relationship between dot and line under privacy protection. In particular, we present a privacy-preserving travel distance calculation protocol and a privacy-preserving comparison protocol through the Paillier cryptosystem and the SC framework. Results of theoretical analysis and experimental evaluation show that PKGS can not only protect the location privacy of both each worker and the task simultaneously but also assign the task to the worker holding a minimum travel distance. In contrast to prior solutions, PKGS outperforms in the computation of travel distance and task assignment.
