Evaluating adaptive differential privacy model

Abstract

Differential privacy is a statistical disclosure control that is gaining popularity in recent years due to easy application for the data collection mechanisms. Many variants of differential privacy are being developed for specific use cases and environments. One of them is adaptive differential privacy that modulates the generated noise in such a way, that the retrieved result is affected according to the risk profile of the asked query and the risk-accuracy tradeoff required for the queried database. This paper intends to evaluate the adaptive differential privacy using VIOLAS Framework and through assessing how the security characteristics satisfied by the adaptive differential privacy mitigate the risk of selected inference attacks.
