A homomorphic encryption scheme HE is a scheme to carry out classical computation from the Server while hiding the inputs, outputs and computation. It can be divided into following four stages. | A homomorphic encryption scheme HE is a scheme to carry out classical computation from the Server while hiding the inputs, outputs and computation.

HE scheme is compact if HE.Eval is independent of any inputs or computation. It is fully homomorphic if it can compute any boolean computation. | HE scheme is compact if HE.Eval is independent of any inputs or computation. It is fully homomorphic if it can compute any boolean computation. | ||
