Christine Task, Data, Privacy---and the Interactions Between Them
November 09, 2022 21:30 - 1 hour - 276 MB VideoData deidentification aims to provide data owners with edible cake: to allow them to freely use, share, store and publicly release sensitive record data without risking the privacy of any of the individuals in the data set. And, surprisingly, given some constraints, that's not impossible to do. However, the behavior of a deidentification algorithm depends on the distribution of the data itself. Privacy research often treats data as a black box---omitting formal data-dependent utility a...
