Enhancing privacy protection of physical examination data through synthetic algorithms based on differential privacy
The main contributions of this study are the exploration of combination models incorporating different noise forms and Bayesian synthetic algorithms, alongside a comparative analysis against existing algorithms. This study explored the balance between privacy protection and data utility under different levels of privacy protection, and DP-Gibbs offers more stable technical support for de-identifying physical examination data prior to sharing and analysis, which realized the mining and application of a wider range of medical data under the requirements of privacy protection. By leveraging this effective privacy protection technique, clinical researchers can extract valuable insights on diseases and population health from the physical examination data without the risk of leaking private information.
