| Abstract | Sensor data that is often collected in the Internet of Things (IoT) or any smart city environment should be protected against security and privacy concerns. Often, sensor data that is shared by devices in smart cities contains sensitive or private information that can often be shared over different networks and by different smart applications. In the last decade, the area of Privacy-Preserving Data Mining (PPDM) has received a lot of attention as the amount of data received and collected daily is huge. Unfortunately, PPDM mostly applies to binary data. To improve the usefulness of PPDM, we present a more usable version for smart cities called Privacy-Preserving Utility Mining (PPUM), in the form of a Maximal Sensitive Utility-Maximal Sensitive ConflIct (MSU-MSI) algorithm. MSU-MSI finds any conflicting items that may contain sensitive itemsets with high-utility and sanitizes them, stripping them of sensitive and private information while maintaining utility. Any transactions encountered that contain sensitive itemsets are first fed through sanitization processes. This is followed by calculating the total number of items that conflict, and then removing them so sanitization processes can operate more efficiently so as to not redo known sanitization processes. We conduct an in-depth experimental analysis, where our detailed methodology is compared directly with state-of-the-art frameworks such as MSU-MIU, MSU-MAU, HHUIF and MSCIF. Our proposed MSU-MSI shows a higher performance in missing cost, in particular when dealing with highly dense or highly sparse datasets. Moreover, our novel framework is shown to achieve an excellent performance with regards to similarity in database structure and database utility. |
