Abstract
The study presents some effective privacy-enhancing transformation techniques that are applicable to various data types. The techniques are able to retain privacy while accessing the information contained in the original data. Specifically, we address the issue of privacy protection through using the data filter, partitioning, synthetic data, and randomization methods. We give examples of inducing the decision-tree classifiers and building detection models of fraud from training data in which the values of sensitive attribute values have been modified. We experimentally validate the privacy-enhancing techniques and the measurement methodology over both real world and synthetic datasets. The experimental results show that the application of privacy-enhancing techniques can preserve the data privacy with minimum loss of information. The results also demonstrate that the proposed techniques can achieve comparative performance measures or mining results while preserving the data privacy.
