Abstract:

Aiming at the mining user movement patterns using trajectory data in offline scenario to leaks the privacy problems of the user sensitive location, using the geographic spatial distribution of points of interest, an anonymous trajectory-based moving pattern mining algorithm based on semantic space is proposed to defend against attacker map matching attacks or semantic inference attacks while implementing user mobility patterns mining. The algorithm first uses grid division technology to divide the urban area into uniform grids to generate grid areas. Then use the location distribution and semantic difference degree of the interest points in the grid area to spatially annotate the trajectory stay points to satisfy the (k,l) privacy model. Finally, the idea of mining PrefixSpan algorithm based on classical model mining is used to mine frequent moving patterns of anonymous trajectory datasets. Theoretical analysis and simulation experiments verify the security and effectiveness of the algorithm. Compared with MCSPP, an existing space-based anonymous trajectory moving pattern mining algorithm, this algorithm not only reduces the average information loss degree, but also has a higher spatial interpretation of the frequent movement patterns of mining.
