ABSTRACT
The data society we live in offers unprecedented opportunities to exploit available data. The goal of data mining is precisely to extract useful information from available data and assist in e.g., decision-making or event-prediction. In doing so, available data usually contain sensitive information about individuals, and releasing even aggregate information about a set of individuals may seriously compromise their individual privacy. In this context, differential privacy has been established as the de facto framework for mining sensitive data in a privacy-aware manner.
In this talk I will 1) give a short and gentle introduction to differential privacy, and 2) present a concrete application example to learning analytics.
