Privacy-utility tradeoff method using multi-variable source coding by Yong-hao GU, Jiu-chuan LIN

“…In the age of big data,data providers need to ensure their privacy,while data analysts need to mine the value of data.So,how to find the privacy-utility tradeoff has become a research hotspot.Current works mostly focus on privacy preserving methods,ignoring the data utility.Based on the current research of privacy utility equilibrium methods,a privacy-utility tradeoff method using multi-variable source coding was proposed to solve the problem that different public datasets in the same database have different privacy requirements.Two results are obtained by simulations.The first result is that the greater the association degree between the private information and public information,the increase of the distortion degree of public information will significantly improve the effect of privacy preservation.The second result is that public information with larger variance should be less distorted to ensure more utility.…”
