Privacy preserving algorithm based on trajectory location and shape similarity by Chao WANG, Jing YANG, Jian-pei ZHANG

“…In order to reduce the privacy disclosure risks when trajectory data is released,a variety of trajectories anonymity methods were proposed.However,while calculating similarity of trajectories,the existing methods ignore the impact that the shape factor of trajectory has on similarity of trajectories,and therefore the produced set of trajectory anonymity has a lower utility.To solve this problem,a trajectory similarity measure model was presented,considered not only the time and space elements of the trajectory,but also the shape factor of trajectory.It is computable in polynomial time,and can calculate the distance of trajectories not defined over the same time span.On this basis,a greedy clustering and data mask based trajectory anonymization algorithm was presented,which maximized the trajectory similarity in the clusters,and formed data ＂mask＂ which is formed by fully accurate true original locations information to meet the trajectory k-anonymity.Finally,experimental results on a synthetic data set and a real-life data set were presented; our method offer better utility and cost less time than comparable previous proposals in the literature.…”

Establishment and application of a rapid new detection method for antimicrobial susceptibility testing of Klebsiella pneumoniae based on MALDI-TOF MS by Yapei Zhang, Fanghua Fan, Xuan Wang, Jie Zhu, Shilei Dong

“…The summarized category agreement resulted in a kappa coefficient of almost 1 for weighted Cohen’s kappa, which could be considered a nearly perfect agreement. It took just 2 h to produce a susceptibility profile with a low failure rate using our new rapid AST method, a work day earlier than the broth microdilution method.IMPORTANCEEmpirical antimicrobial use before antimicrobial susceptibility test (AST) is necessary but risks patient harm and excess costs. …”
