摘要:Privacy preserving data release is a hot topic that attracts a lot of attentions in data mining, machine learning, and social network communities. Most studies on privacy preserving focus on static data releases; however, data are usually updated periodically. As a potential solution, differential privacy addresses continual data release by simplifying it into an event stream release problem. This approach overlooks the relationship between events, defined as coupled information here. We argue that datasets cannot be simplified as an event stream due to the coupled information. In addition, the coupled information may reveal more private information than expected. We propose a privacy-preserving mechanism that explicitly identify the coupled information in continually released datasets. Instead of simplifying datasets to event streams, this mechanism considers the continual released datasets as coupled datasets based on the relationship between the same individual in different datasets, and the relationship between different individuals in the same dataset. We also propose the notion of coupled sensitivity for answering differentially private queries and develop an iterative based coupled continual release algorithm, called CCR, that answers these queries with a large set of differentially private results. We use theoretical analysis to prove the privacy of this method, and use an extensive performance study to show that CCR outperforms traditional differential privacy mechanisms when answering a large set of queries.

报告人简介:Professor Wanlei Zhou is currently the Head of School of Computer Science in University of Technology Sydney (UTS), Australia. He received the B.Eng and M.Eng degrees from Harbin Institute of Technology, Harbin, China in 1982 and 1984, respectively, and the PhD degree from The Australian National University, Canberra, Australia, in 1991, all in Computer Science and Engineering. He also received a DSc degree (a higher Doctorate degree) from Deakin University in 2002. Before joining UTS, Professor Zhou held the positions of Alfred Deakin Professor, Chair of Information Technology, and Associate Dean (International Research Engagement) of Faculty of Science, Engineering and Built Environment, Deakin University. Professor Zhou has been the Head of School of Information Technology twice (Jan 2002-Apr 2006 and Jan 2009-Jan 2015) and Associate Dean of Faculty of Science and Technology in Deakin University (May 2006-Dec 2008). Professor Zhou also served as a lecturer in University of Electronic Science and Technology of China, a system programmer in HP at Massachusetts, USA; a lecturer in Monash University, Melbourne, Australia; and a lecturer in National University of Singapore, Singapore. His research interests include security and privacy, bioinformatics, and e-learning. Professor Zhou has published more than 400 papers in refereed international journals and refereed international conferences proceedings, including many articles in IEEE transactions and journals.
