Abstract
Data mining services require accurate input data for their results to be
meaningful, but privacy concerns may influence users to provide spurious
information. The authors investigate here, with respect to mining
association rules, whether users can be encouraged to provide correct
information by ensuring that the mining process cannot, with any
reasonable degree of certainty, violate their privacy. The authors present
a scheme, based on probabilistic distortion of user data, that can
simultaneously provide a high degree of privacy to the user and retain a
high level of accuracy in the mining results. The performance of the
scheme is validated against representative real and synthetic datasets.
