A Symmetry Histogram Publishing Method Based on Differential Privacy

description | The differential privacy histogram publishing method based on grouping cannot balance the grouping reconstruction error and Laplace noise error, resulting in insufficient histogram publishing accuracy. To address this problem, we propose a symmetric histogram publishing method DPHR (differential privacy histogram released). Firstly, the algorithm uses the exponential mechanism to sort the counting of the original histogram bucket globally to improve the grouping accuracy; secondly, we propose an optimal dynamic symmetric programming grouping algorithm based on the global minimum error, which uses the global minimum error as the error evaluation function based on the ordered histogram. This way, we can achieve a global grouping of the optimal error balance while balancing the reconstruction and Laplace errors. Experiments show that this method effectively reduces the cumulative error between the published histogram and the original histogram under long-range counting queries based on satisfying <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mi>ε</mi></semantics></math></inline-formula>-differential privacy and improves the usability of the published histogram data. |
