Data Component Method Based on Dual-Factor Ownership Identification with Multimodal Feature Fusion

In the booming digital economy, data circulation-particularly for massive multimodal data generated by IoT sensor networks-faces critical challenges: ambiguous ownership and broken cross-domain traceability. Traditional property rights theory, ill-suited to data's non-rivalrous nature, leads to ownership fuzziness after multi-source fusion and traceability gaps in cross-organizational flows, hindering marketization. This study aims to establish native ownership confirmation capabilities in trusted IoT-driven data ecosystems. The approach involves a dual-factor system: the collaborative extraction of text (from sensor-generated inspection reports), numerical (from industrial sensor measurements), visual (from 3D scanning sensors), and spatio-temporal features (from GPS and IoT device logs) generates unique SHA-256 fingerprints (first factor), while RSA/ECDSA private key signatures (linked to sensor node identities) bind ownership (second factor). An intermediate state integrates these with metadata, supported by blockchain (consortium chain + IPFS) and cross-domain protocols optimized for IoT environments to ensure full-link traceability. This scheme, tailored to the characteristics of IoT sensor networks, breaks traditional ownership confirmation bottlenecks in multi-source fusion, demonstrating strong performance in ownership recognition, anti-tampering robustness, cross-domain traceability and encryption performance. It offers technical and theoretical support for standardized data components and the marketization of data elements within IoT ecosystems.

Abstract

In the booming digital economy, data circulation-particularly for massive multimodal data generated by IoT sensor networks-faces critical challenges: ambiguous ownership and broken cross-domain traceability. Traditional property rights theory, ill-suited to data's non-rivalrous nature, leads to ownership fuzziness after multi-source fusion and traceability gaps in cross-organizational flows, hindering marketization. This study aims to establish native ownership confirmation capabilities in trusted IoT-driven data ecosystems. The approach involves a dual-factor system: the collaborative extraction of text (from sensor-generated inspection reports), numerical (from industrial sensor measurements), visual (from 3D scanning sensors), and spatio-temporal features (from GPS and IoT device logs) generates unique SHA-256 fingerprints (first factor), while RSA/ECDSA private key signatures (linked to sensor node identities) bind ownership (second factor). An intermediate state integrates these with metadata, supported by blockchain (consortium chain + IPFS) and cross-domain protocols optimized for IoT environments to ensure full-link traceability. This scheme, tailored to the characteristics of IoT sensor networks, breaks traditional ownership confirmation bottlenecks in multi-source fusion, demonstrating strong performance in ownership recognition, anti-tampering robustness, cross-domain traceability and encryption performance. It offers technical and theoretical support for standardized data components and the marketization of data elements within IoT ecosystems.
