Abstract: Aiming at the problem of poor data anonymity and large data loss caused by excessive suppression of traditional high-dimensional trajectory privacy protection model, a new trajectory-privacy method based on information entropy suppression was proposed. A flowgraph based on entropy was generated for the trajectory dataset, a reasonable cost function according to the information entropy of spatio-temproal points was designed, and the privacy was preserved by local suppression of spatio-temproal points. Meanwhile, an improved algorithm for comparing the similarity of flowgraphs before and after suppression was proposed, and a function for evaluating the privacy gains was introduced.Finally, the proposed method was compared with the LK-Local (Length K-anonymity based on Local suppression) approach in trajectory privacy and data practicability. The experimental results on a synthetic subway transportation system dataset show that, with the same anonymous parameter value the proposed method increases the similarity measure by about 27%, reduces the data loss by about 25%, and increases the privacy gain by about 21%.

摘要: 针对传统高维轨迹隐私保护模型抑制点数过多而导致的数据匿名性差及数据损失大的问题,提出了一种基于信息熵抑制的轨迹隐私保护方法。通过为轨迹数据建立基于熵的流量图,根据轨迹时空点信息熵大小设计合理的花费代价函数,局部抑制时空点以达到隐私保护的目的;同时改进了一种比较抑制前后流量图相似性的算法,并提出了一个衡量隐私收益的函数;最后,与LK-Local方法进行了轨迹隐私度与数据实用性的比较。在模拟地铁交通运输系统数据集上的实验结果表明,与LK-Local方法相比,在相同的匿名参数取值下,所提方法在相似性度量上提高了约27%,在数据损失度量上降低了约25%,在隐私收益上提高了约21%。
