Privacy-Preserving Data Mining Algorithm Based on Modified Particle Swarm Optimization

摘要

The privacy preserving data mining is a research hotspot. Most of the privacy preserving algorithms are focused on the centralized database. The algorithms on the distributed database are very vulnerable to collusion attack. The Privacy-Preserving data mining algorithm based on particle swarm optimization is proposed in this paper. The algorithm is based on centralized database, and it can be used on the distributed database. The algorithm is divided into two steps in the distributed database. In the first step, the modified particle swarm optimization algorithm is used to get the local Bayesian network structure. The purpose of the second step is getting the global Bayesian network structure by using local ones. In order to protect the data privacy, the secure sum is used in the algorithm. The algorithm is proved to be convergent on theory. Some experiments have been done on the algorithm, and the results prove that the algorithm is feasible.
