Abstract:

As information technology rapidly advances, data privacy protection has become a focal point of interest. Effectively safeguarding personal privacy while maximizing the utility of data resources is an urgent issue to address. Implementing data privacy protection through noise addition is one of the prevalent methods, yet research on the impact of various noise addition techniques on data usability is scarce. This study experimentally introduced laplace noise and gaussian noise to “five-star” rating data indicative of user experience. It compared and analyzed the alterations in three statistical metrics of the noise data: mean absolute error, root mean square error, and variance growth rate. The paper further investigated the effects of combining noise with different ratios and varying data volumes on statistical indicators. The experimental results indicate that with larger data volumes, a higher proportion of Gaussian noise addition results in statistical properties of the noise data that more closely resemble the original data. This approach ensures data usability while achieving personal privacy protection.
