In regard to the privacy leakage of time-series location information in the field of logistics, this paper proposes a method based on differential privacy for time-series location data publication. Firstly, it constructs public region of interest(PROI) related to time by using clustering optimal algorithm. And it adopts the method of the centroid point to ensure the public interest point(PIP) representing the location of the public interest zone. Secondly, according to the PIP, we can construct location search tree(LST) that is a commonly used index structure of spatial data, in order to ensure the inherent relation among location data. Thirdly, we add Laplace noise to the node of LST, which means fewer times to add Laplace noise on the original data set and ensures the data availability. Finally, experiments show that this method not only ensures the security of sequential location data publishing, but also has better data availability than the general differential privacy method, which achieves a good balance between the security and availability of data.展开更多

The smart meters deployed on the user side of the smart grid collect the users' power usage data on a regular basis and upload it to the control center to complete the smart grid data acquisition. The control center can evaluate the supply and demand of the power grid through aggregated data from users and then dynamically adjust the power supply and price, etc. However, since the grid data collected from users may disclose the user's electricity usage habits and daily activities, privacy concern has become a critical issue in smart grid data aggregation. Most of the existing privacy-preserving data collection schemes for smart grid adopt homomorphic encryption or randomization techniques which are either impractical because of the high computation overhead or unrealistic for requiring a trusted third party.展开更多

The interactive relationship of social network contains a lot of personal privacy information. The direct release of social network data will cause the disclosure of privacy information. Aiming at the dynamic characteristics of social network data release, a new dynamic social network data publishing method based on differential privacy was proposed. This method was consistent with differential privacy. It is named DDPA (Dynamic Differential Privacy Algorithm). DDPA algorithm is an improvement of privacy protection algorithm in static social network data publishing. DDPA adds noise which follows Laplace to network edge weights. DDPA identifies the edge weight information that changes as the number of iterations increases, adding the privacy protection budget. Through experiments on real data sets, the results show that the DDPA algorithm satisfies the user’s privacy requirement in social network. DDPA reduces the execution time brought by iterations and reduces the information loss rate of graph structure.展开更多

文摘This study addresses the risk of privacy leakage during the transmission and sharing of multimodal data in smart grid substations by proposing a three-tier privacy-preserving architecture based on asynchronous federated learning.The framework integrates blockchain technology,the InterPlanetary File System(IPFS)for distributed storage,and a dynamic differential privacy mechanism to achieve collaborative security across the storage,service,and federated coordination layers.It accommodates both multimodal data classification and object detection tasks,enabling the identification and localization of key targets and abnormal behaviors in substation scenarios while ensuring privacy protection.This effectively mitigates the single-point failures and model leakage issues inherent in centralized architectures.A dynamically adjustable differential privacy mechanism is introduced to allocate privacy budgets according to client contribution levels and upload frequencies,achieving a personalized balance between model performance and privacy protection.Multi-dimensional experimental evaluations,including classification accuracy,F1-score,encryption latency,and aggregation latency,verify the security and efficiency of the proposed architecture.The improved CNN model achieves 72.34%accuracy and an F1-score of 0.72 in object detection and classification tasks on infrared surveillance imagery,effectively identifying typical risk events such as not wearing safety helmets and unauthorized intrusion,while maintaining an aggregation latency of only 1.58 s and a query latency of 80.79 ms.Compared with traditional static differential privacy and centralized approaches,the proposed method demonstrates significant advantages in accuracy,latency,and security,providing a new technical paradigm for efficient,secure data sharing,object detection,and privacy preservation in smart grid substations.

文摘In the age of information sharing, logistics information sharing also faces the risk of privacy leakage. In regard to the privacy leakage of time-series location information in the field of logistics, this paper proposes a method based on differential privacy for time-series location data publication. Firstly, it constructs public region of interest(PROI) related to time by using clustering optimal algorithm. And it adopts the method of the centroid point to ensure the public interest point(PIP) representing the location of the public interest zone. Secondly, according to the PIP, we can construct location search tree(LST) that is a commonly used index structure of spatial data, in order to ensure the inherent relation among location data. Thirdly, we add Laplace noise to the node of LST, which means fewer times to add Laplace noise on the original data set and ensures the data availability. Finally, experiments show that this method not only ensures the security of sequential location data publishing, but also has better data availability than the general differential privacy method, which achieves a good balance between the security and availability of data.
文摘With the development of Internet of Things(IoT),the delay caused by network transmission has led to low data processing efficiency.At the same time,the limited computing power and available energy consumption of IoT terminal devices are also the important bottlenecks that would restrict the application of blockchain,but edge computing could solve this problem.The emergence of edge computing can effectively reduce the delay of data transmission and improve data processing capacity.However,user data in edge computing is usually stored and processed in some honest-but-curious authorized entities,which leads to the leakage of users’privacy information.In order to solve these problems,this paper proposes a location data collection method that satisfies the local differential privacy to protect users’privacy.In this paper,a Voronoi diagram constructed by the Delaunay method is used to divide the road network space and determine the Voronoi grid region where the edge nodes are located.A random disturbance mechanism that satisfies the local differential privacy is utilized to disturb the original location data in each Voronoi grid.In addition,the effectiveness of the proposed privacy-preserving mechanism is verified through comparison experiments.Compared with the existing privacy-preserving methods,the proposed privacy-preserving mechanism can not only better meet users’privacy needs,but also have higher data availability.

文摘By integrating the traditional power grid with information and communication technology, smart grid achieves dependable, efficient, and flexible grid data processing. The smart meters deployed on the user side of the smart grid collect the users' power usage data on a regular basis and upload it to the control center to complete the smart grid data acquisition. The control center can evaluate the supply and demand of the power grid through aggregated data from users and then dynamically adjust the power supply and price, etc. However, since the grid data collected from users may disclose the user's electricity usage habits and daily activities, privacy concern has become a critical issue in smart grid data aggregation. Most of the existing privacy-preserving data collection schemes for smart grid adopt homomorphic encryption or randomization techniques which are either impractical because of the high computation overhead or unrealistic for requiring a trusted third party.

文摘Federated Learning(FL)is a new computing paradigm in privacy-preserving Machine Learning(ML),where the ML model is trained in a decentralized manner by the clients,preventing the server from directly accessing privacy-sensitive data from the clients.Unfortunately,recent advances have shown potential risks for user-level privacy breaches under the cross-silo FL framework.In this paper,we propose addressing the issue by using a three-plane framework to secure the cross-silo FL,taking advantage of the Local Differential Privacy(LDP)mechanism.The key insight here is that LDP can provide strong data privacy protection while still retaining user data statistics to preserve its high utility.Experimental results on three real-world datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of our framework.

文摘In recent years,with the continuous advancement of the intelligent process of the Internet of Vehicles(IoV),the problem of privacy leakage in IoV has become increasingly prominent.The research on the privacy protection of the IoV has become the focus of the society.This paper analyzes the advantages and disadvantages of the existing location privacy protection system structure and algorithms,proposes a privacy protection system structure based on untrusted data collection server,and designs a vehicle location acquisition algorithm based on a local differential privacy and game model.The algorithm first meshes the road network space.Then,the dynamic game model is introduced into the game user location privacy protection model and the attacker location semantic inference model,thereby minimizing the possibility of exposing the regional semantic privacy of the k-location set while maximizing the availability of the service.On this basis,a statistical method is designed,which satisfies the local differential privacy of k-location sets and obtains unbiased estimation of traffic density in different regions.Finally,this paper verifies the algorithm based on the data set of mobile vehicles in Shanghai.The experimental results show that the algorithm can guarantee the user’s location privacy and location semantic privacy while satisfying the service quality requirements,and provide better privacy protection and service for the users of the IoV.

文摘Health monitoring data or the data about infectious diseases such as COVID-19 may need to be constantly updated and dynamically released,but they may contain user's sensitive information.Thus,how to preserve the user's privacy before their release is critically important yet challenging.Differential Privacy(DP)is well-known to provide effective privacy protection,and thus the dynamic DP preserving data release was designed to publish a histogram to meet DP guarantee.Unfortunately,this scheme may result in high cumulative errors and lower the data availability.To address this problem,in this paper,we apply Jensen-Shannon(JS)divergence to design the OPTICS(Ordering Points To Identify The Clustering Structure)scheme.It uses JS divergence to measure the difference between the updated data set at the current release time and private data set at the previous release time.By comparing the difference with a threshold,only when the difference is greater than the threshold,can we apply OPTICS to publish DP protected data sets.Our experimental results show that the absolute errors and average relative errors are significantly lower than those existing works.
文摘Social network contains the interaction between social members, which constitutes the structure and attribute of social network. The interactive relationship of social network contains a lot of personal privacy information. The direct release of social network data will cause the disclosure of privacy information. Aiming at the dynamic characteristics of social network data release, a new dynamic social network data publishing method based on differential privacy was proposed. This method was consistent with differential privacy. It is named DDPA (Dynamic Differential Privacy Algorithm). DDPA algorithm is an improvement of privacy protection algorithm in static social network data publishing. DDPA adds noise which follows Laplace to network edge weights. DDPA identifies the edge weight information that changes as the number of iterations increases, adding the privacy protection budget. Through experiments on real data sets, the results show that the DDPA algorithm satisfies the user’s privacy requirement in social network. DDPA reduces the execution time brought by iterations and reduces the information loss rate of graph structure.

文摘Frequent itemset mining is an essential problem in data mining and plays a key role in many data mining applications.However,users’personal privacy will be leaked in the mining process.In recent years,application of local differential privacy protection models to mine frequent itemsets is a relatively reliable and secure protection method.Local differential privacy means that users first perturb the original data and then send these data to the aggregator,preventing the aggregator from revealing the user’s private information.We propose a novel framework that implements frequent itemset mining under local differential privacy and is applicable to user’s multi-attribute.The main technique has bitmap encoding for converting the user’s original data into a binary string.It also includes how to choose the best perturbation algorithm for varying user attributes,and uses the frequent pattern tree(FP-tree)algorithm to mine frequent itemsets.Finally,we incorporate the threshold random response(TRR)algorithm in the framework and compare it with the existing algorithms,and demonstrate that the TRR algorithm has higher accuracy for mining frequent itemsets.
