Augmenting datasets with selected de-identified data records

摘要

A computer system utilizes a dataset to support a research study. Regions of interestingness are determined within a model of data records of a first dataset that are authorized for the research study by associated entities. Data records from a second dataset are represented within the model, wherein the data records from the second dataset are relevant for supporting objectives of the research study. Data records from the second dataset that fail to satisfy de-identification requirements are removed. A resulting dataset is generated that including the first dataset records within a selected region of interestingness and selected records of the second dataset within the same region. The second dataset records within the resulting dataset are de-identified based on the de-identification requirements. Embodiments of the present invention further include a method and program product for utilizing a dataset to support a research study in substantially the same manner described above.
