Abstract Location and trajectory data are routinely collected to generate valuable knowledge about users' pattern behavior. However, releasing location data may jeopardize the privacy of the involved individuals. Differential privacy is a powerful technique that prevents an adversary from inferring the presence or absence of an individual in the original data solely based on the observed data. The first challenge in applying differential privacy in location is that a it usually involves a single user. This shifts the adversary's target to the user's locations instead of presence or absence in the original data. The second challenge is that the inherent correlation between location data, due to people's movement regularity and predictability, gives the adversary an advantage in inferring information about individuals. In this paper, we review the differentially private approaches to tackle these challenges. Our goal is to help newcomers to the field to better understand the state-of-the art by providing a research map that highlights the different challenges in designing differentially private frameworks that tackle the characteristics of location data. We find that in protecting an individual's location privacy, the attention of differential privacy mechanisms shifts to preventing the adversary from inferring the original location based on the observed one. Moreover, we find that the privacy-preserving mechanisms make use of the predictability and regularity of users' movements to design and protect the users' privacy in trajectory data. Finally, we explore how well the presented frameworks succeed in protecting users' locations and trajectories against well-known privacy attacks.

Abstract A key challenge facing the design of differential privacy in the non-interactive setting is to maintain the utility of the released data. To overcome this challenge, we utilize the Diaconis-Freedman-Meckes (DFM) effect, which states that most projections of high-dimensional data are nearly Gaussian. Hence, we propose the RON-Gauss model that leverages the novel combination of dimensionality reduction via random orthonormal (RON) projection and the Gaussian generative model for synthesizing differentially-private data. We analyze how RON-Gauss benefits from the DFM effect, and present multiple algorithms for a range of machine learning applications, including both unsupervised and supervised learning. Furthermore, we rigorously prove that (a) our algorithms satisfy the strong ɛ-differential privacy guarantee, and (b) RON projection can lower the level of perturbation required for differential privacy. Finally, we illustrate the effectiveness of RON-Gauss under three common machine learning applications – clustering, classification, and regression – on three large real-world datasets. Our empirical results show that (a) RON-Gauss outperforms previous approaches by up to an order of magnitude, and (b) loss in utility compared to the non-private real data is small. Thus, RON-Gauss can serve as a key enabler for real-world deployment of privacy-preserving data release.

<div>We address privacy and latency issues in the edge/cloud computing environment while training a centralized AI model. In our particular case, the edge devices are the only data source for the model to train on the central server. Current privacy-preserving and reducing network latency solutions rely on a pre-trained feature extractor deployed on the devices to help extract only important features from the sensitive dataset. However, finding a pre-trained model or pubic dataset to build a feature extractor for certain tasks may turn out to be very challenging. With the large amount of data generated by edge devices, the edge environment does not really lack data, but its improper access may lead to privacy concerns. In this paper, we present DeepGuess , a new privacy-preserving, and latency aware deeplearning framework. DeepGuess uses a new learning mechanism enabled by the AutoEncoder(AE) architecture called Inductive Learning, which makes it possible to train a central neural network using the data produced by end-devices while preserving their privacy. With inductive learning, sensitive data remains on devices and is not explicitly involved in any backpropagation process. The AE’s Encoder is deployed on devices to extracts and transfers important features to the server. To enhance privacy, we propose a new local deferentially private algorithm that allows the Edge devices to apply random noise to features extracted from their sensitive data before transferred to an untrusted server. The experimental evaluation of DeepGuess demonstrates its effectiveness and ability to converge on a series of experiments.</div>
