3. A type-driven approach for sensitivity checking with branching
University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för data- och informationsteknikAbstract : Differential Privacy (DP) is a promising approach to allow privacy preserving statistics over large datasets of sensitive data. It works by adding random noise to the result of the analytics. Understanding the sensitivity of a query is key to add the right amount of noise capable of protecting privacy of individuals in the dataset. READ MORE
