Privacy Preserving Data Mining

• Perturbation– Agrawal & Srikant, Agrawal & Aggarwal, – Rizvi & Haritsa, Evfimievski et al.

• Cryptographic– Lindell & Pinkas, Du & Zhan– Vaidya & Clifton, Kantarcioglu & Clifton

Secure Multiparty Computation (SMC)

• Given a function f and n inputs, distributed at n sites, compute

the result

while revealing nothing to any site except its own input(s) and the result.

Results

• Cluster assignment for entities– Not private

• Cluster centers– Semi-private

Secure K-means clustering

Arbitrarily select k starting points

Repeat– Assign to respectively– (re)assign each object to closest cluster

based on distance from mean– Re-compute the cluster means

Until no change

Key Idea

• Disguise site components with random values

• Compare distances while revealing only comparison result

• Permute order of clusters to conceal meaning of comparison results

Closest Cluster Computation

• 3 special sites, P1, P2 and Pr

• P1 generates

– r random vectors such that– Permutation π (over 1 .. K)

Closest Cluster Computation

• Stage 3– P2 and Pr determine i, the index of the cluster

with minimum distance

• Stage 4– P1 computes and broadcasts i1

When to stop?

• Locally compute difference in means

• Globally known threshold

• Use simple random-adding technique to disguise actual values– First party adds random value to its distance and

sends to next party– Each party adds its value to total and sends on– Last party compares with first party’s random

Communication Cost

• r parties, n data elements, m bit distances
