The k-anonymity model is a privacy-preserving approach that has been extensively studied for the past few years. To minimize the information loss due to anonymization, it is crucial to group similar data together and then anonymize each group individually. This work proposes a clusteringbased k-anonymization method that runs in O( , the experiments show that our method outperforms their method with respect to information loss and resilience to outliers.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
