Optimal Random Perturbation at Multiple Privacy Levels
Random perturbation is a popular method of computing anonymized data for privacy preserving data mining. It is simple to apply, ensures strong privacy protection, and permits effective mining of a large variety of data patterns. However, all the existing studies with good privacy guarantees focus on perturbation at a single privacy level. Namely, a fixed degree of privacy protection is imposed ...
متن کاملPSAR: measuring multiple sequence alignment reliability by probabilistic sampling
Multiple sequence alignment, which is of fundamental importance for comparative genomics, is a difficult problem and error-prone. Therefore, it is essential to measure the reliability of the alignments and incorporate it into downstream analyses. We propose a new probabilistic sampling-based alignment reliability (PSAR) score. Instead of relying on heuristic assumptions, such as the correlation...

متن کاملGestational Diabetes and Preeclampsia in Association with Air Pollution at Levels below Current Air Quality Guidelines
BACKGROUND Several studies have estimated associations between air pollution and birth outcomes, but few have evaluated potential effects on pregnancy complications. OBJECTIVE We investigated whether low-level exposure to air pollution is associated with gestational diabetes and preeclampsia. METHODS High-quality registry information on 81,110 singleton pregnancy outcomes in southern Sweden...
متن کاملSampling for Quality: A Comparison of Sampling Locations for Asphalt Paving Mixtures
Each year, more than 25 percent of highway fatalities in the United States occur at or near horizontal curves, according to the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA). In an attempt to save lives and prevent injuries, some 30 states across the U.S. are applying high friction surfaces (HFS) to improve skid resistance at locations with a high incident of vehicle crashes such as severe horizontal c...
