SIG-DB: Leveraging homomorphic encryption to securely interrogate privately held genomic databases

Intersection over union (IoU) scores for k-mer = {8, 16, 32} with random query sequence mutation rates from 0–100%.
K-mer = 8 showed best performance, with correct identification of sequence of interest up to mutation rates of 45%. The red circles indicate the largest mutation rate for each k-mer size that returned the correct result as the highest IoU value. The horizontal red line represents IoU = 0.1.
