Overview

This project implements a Merkle Tree-based cryptographic verification system for large-scale review datasets. It ensures data integrity, detects tampering, and provides efficient existence proofs.

Features

• Build Merkle Trees from large JSON datasets
• Generate proof paths for individual reviews
• Verify integrity and detect tampering
• Performance metrics and benchmarking

Folder Structure

• include/ - Header files for modules
• src/ - Source code implementations
• data/ - Sample datasets
• images/ - Figures and illustrations
• report/ - Final report and documentation
