This book was released on 2005 with total page 167 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The sharing of data is often beneficial in data mining applications. It has been proven useful to support both decision-making processes and to promote social goals. However, the sharing of data has also raised a number of ethical issues. Some such issues include those of privacy, data security, and intellectual property rights. In this thesis, we focus primarily on privacy issues in data mining, notably when data are shared before mining. Specifically, we consider some scenarios in which applications of association rule mining and data clustering require privacy safeguards. Addressing privacy preservation in such scenarios is complex. One must not only meet privacy requirements but also guarantee valid data rnining results. This status indicates the pressing need for rethinking mechanisnis to enforce privacy safeguards without losing the benefit of mining. These mechanisms can lead to new privacy control methods to convert a database into a new one in such a waY as to preserve the main features of the original database for mining. In particular, we address the problem of transforming a database to be shared into a new one that conceals private information while preserving the general patterrns and trends from the original database. To address this challening problem, we propose a unified framework for privacy-preserving data mining that ensures that the mining process will not violate privacy up to a certain degree of security. The frarnework encompasses a family of privacy-preserving data transformation rnethods, a library of algoritImis, retrieval facilities to speed up the transformation process, and a set of metrics to evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithms, in terms of information loss, and to quantify how much private information has been disclosed. Our investigation concludes that privacy-preserving data mining is to some extent possible. We demonstrate empirically and tlleoretically the practicality and feasibility of achieving privacy preservation in data mining. Our experiments reveal that our framework is efféctive, meets privacy requírements. and guarantees valid data mining results while protecting sensitive information (e.g., sensitive knowIedge and individuals' privacy).

This book was released on 2022-10-02 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent advances in data mining techniques facilitate to explore hidden knowledge from a large volume of data. When organizations share data for mining, they may restrict confidential information and knowledge to the other organizations. To protect sensitive information before data sharing, the modern age of information processing has evolved a new research area, namely Privacy Preserving Data Mining. Data transformation methods facilitate to preserve privacy without losing the benefit of data mining. The existing studies have dealt with data transformation methods for numerical data to preserve privacy in clustering and also data sanitization approaches to hide sensitive patterns. It is essential to devise new data transformation methods for categorical data to preserve privacy in clustering. The existing data sanitization approaches are capable of removing a number of legitimate patterns while concealing sensitive patterns. They also focus exclusively on specific pattern types. Nevertheless, it is necessary to develop new data sanitization approaches to hide sensitive patterns. In this work, to begin with, sensitive categorical data protection in clustering is addressed. Two hybrid data transformation methods have been devised to transform the sensitive categorical data. Then, their effectiveness in privacy preservation and clustering accuracy are validated. It is found that iv scaling and rotation transformation method improves the privacy level and the translation and rotation transformation method provides better accuracy in clustering. Hiding sensitive association rules are implemented by concealing the frequent itemsets. It includes the concepts of non-sensitive item conflict degree, item and transaction conflict ratio. Experimental results indicate that the use of item and transaction conflict ratio reduces the legitimate itemsets missed after sanitization. The work further focuses on sanitization approaches for privacy preservation of sensitive utility itemsets. With an intention to deal with this, two data sanitization approaches are devised using transaction conflict degree and item conflict degree. The experimental results indicate that the item conflict degree improves results in terms of the legitimate itemsets lost. Privacy preservation of utility and frequent itemset is also considered and two data sanitization approaches have been developed. Based on the experimental results, it can be observed that the item conflict ratio based sanitization approach minimizes non-sensitive itemsets missed and modifications in the original database. To summarize, the research works devised data transformation approaches by which privacy was ensured while maintaining accuracy in data mining

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is dedicated to those who have something to hide. It is a book about "privacy preserving data publishing" -- the art of publishing sensitive personal data, collected from a group of individuals, in a form that does not violate their privacy. This problem has numerous and diverse areas of application, including releasing Census data, search logs, medical records, and interactions on a social network. The purpose of this book is to provide a detailed overview of the current state of the art as well as open challenges, focusing particular attention on four key themes: RIGOROUS PRIVACY POLICIES Repeated and highly-publicized attacks on published data have demonstrated that simplistic approaches to data publishing do not work. Significant recent advances have exposed the shortcomings of naive (and not-so-naive) techniques. They have also led to the development of mathematically rigorous definitions of privacy that publishing techniques must satisfy; METRICS FOR DATA UTILITY While it is necessary to enforce stringent privacy policies, it is equally important to ensure that the published version of the data is useful for its intended purpose. The authors provide an overview of diverse approaches to measuring data utility; ENFORCEMENT MECHANISMS This book describes in detail various key data publishing mechanisms that guarantee privacy and utility; EMERGING APPLICATIONS The problem of privacy-preserving data publishing arises in diverse application domains with unique privacy and utility requirements. The authors elaborate on the merits and limitations of existing solutions, based on which we expect to see many advances in years to come.

Download or read book Process Mining in Healthcare written by Ronny S. Mans and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-03-12 with total page 99 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What are the possibilities for process mining in hospitals? In this book the authors provide an answer to this question by presenting a healthcare reference model that outlines all the different classes of data that are potentially available for process mining in healthcare and the relationships between them. Subsequently, based on this reference model, they explain the application opportunities for process mining in this domain and discuss the various kinds of analyses that can be performed. They focus on organizational healthcare processes rather than medical treatment processes. The combination of event data and process mining techniques allows them to analyze the operational processes within a hospital based on facts, thus providing a solid basis for managing and improving processes within hospitals. To this end, they also explicitly elaborate on data quality issues that are relevant for the data aspects of the healthcare reference model. This book mainly targets advanced professionals involved in areas related to business process management, business intelligence, data mining, and business process redesign for healthcare systems as well as graduate students specializing in healthcare information systems and process analysis.

Download or read book The Algorithmic Foundations of Differential Privacy written by Cynthia Dwork and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The problem of privacy-preserving data analysis has a long history spanning multiple disciplines. As electronic data about individuals becomes increasingly detailed, and as technology enables ever more powerful collection and curation of these data, the need increases for a robust, meaningful, and mathematically rigorous definition of privacy, together with a computationally rich class of algorithms that satisfy this definition. Differential Privacy is such a definition. The Algorithmic Foundations of Differential Privacy starts out by motivating and discussing the meaning of differential privacy, and proceeds to explore the fundamental techniques for achieving differential privacy, and the application of these techniques in creative combinations, using the query-release problem as an ongoing example. A key point is that, by rethinking the computational goal, one can often obtain far better results than would be achieved by methodically replacing each step of a non-private computation with a differentially private implementation. Despite some powerful computational results, there are still fundamental limitations. Virtually all the algorithms discussed herein maintain differential privacy against adversaries of arbitrary computational power -- certain algorithms are computationally intensive, others are efficient. Computational complexity for the adversary and the algorithm are both discussed. The monograph then turns from fundamentals to applications other than query-release, discussing differentially private methods for mechanism design and machine learning. The vast majority of the literature on differentially private algorithms considers a single, static, database that is subject to many analyses. Differential privacy in other models, including distributed databases and computations on data streams, is discussed. The Algorithmic Foundations of Differential Privacy is meant as a thorough introduction to the problems and techniques of differential privacy, and is an invaluable reference for anyone with an interest in the topic.

Download or read book Data Preprocessing in Data Mining written by Salvador García and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-08-30 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Data Preprocessing for Data Mining addresses one of the most important issues within the well-known Knowledge Discovery from Data process. Data directly taken from the source will likely have inconsistencies, errors or most importantly, it is not ready to be considered for a data mining process. Furthermore, the increasing amount of data in recent science, industry and business applications, calls to the requirement of more complex tools to analyze it. Thanks to data preprocessing, it is possible to convert the impossible into possible, adapting the data to fulfill the input demands of each data mining algorithm. Data preprocessing includes the data reduction techniques, which aim at reducing the complexity of the data, detecting or removing irrelevant and noisy elements from the data. This book is intended to review the tasks that fill the gap between the data acquisition from the source and the data mining process. A comprehensive look from a practical point of view, including basic concepts and surveying the techniques proposed in the specialized literature, is given.Each chapter is a stand-alone guide to a particular data preprocessing topic, from basic concepts and detailed descriptions of classical algorithms, to an incursion of an exhaustive catalog of recent developments. The in-depth technical descriptions make this book suitable for technical professionals, researchers, senior undergraduate and graduate students in data science, computer science and engineering.
