Abstract

A matching method includes: generating a first numerical vector; generating a second numerical vector by squaring each component of the first numerical vector and a third numerical vector by cubing each component of the first numerical vector; generating first to third polynomials by executing polynomial transformation of the first to third numerical vectors; encrypting the first to third polynomials by a homomorphic encryption scheme; executing a predetermined operation while keeping data used in the predetermined operation encrypted, by using fourth to sixth polynomials obtained by the polynomial transformation and the homomorphic encryption of fourth to sixth numerical vectors, wherein the fourth numerical vector is generated by numerically vectorizing second text, the fifth numerical vector is generated by squaring each component of the fourth numerical vector, and the sixth numerical vector is generated by cubing each component of the fourth numerical vector; and decrypting a result of the predetermined operation.
