Funded Activity Summary

Privacy Preserving Data Mining as Autonomous Data Analysis Expands into Safeguarding from Threats like Crime and Terrorism. In a world characterized by digitally coded data, Data Mining allows automatic exploration of huge numbers of personal records for target marketing, as well as demographic, medical and criminal research. Investigations into terrorist attacks use this technology, but a balance with privacy protection is necessary. Even if names and unique identifiers are removed, computer methods can be used to infer confidential information about individuals. This project develops new techniques to ensure privacy and alleviate public concerns such as secondary use of personal data. We shall develop new methods for replacing original data with data that exhibits approximately the same patterns, but conceals sensitive data.
