Resumo


This paper presents ongoing research focused on improving the utility of data protected by Global Differential Privacy(DP) in the scenario of summary statistics. Our approach is based on predictions on how an analyst will use statistics released under DP protection, so that a developer can optimise data utility on further usage of the data in the privacy budget allocation. This novel approach can potentially improve the utility of data without compromising privacy constraints. We also propose a metric that can be used by the developer to optimise the budget allocation process.
