Local Differential Privacy: a tutorial
share
In the past decade analysis of big data has proven to be extremely valuable in many contexts. Local Differential Privacy (LDP) is a state-of-the-art approach which allows statistical computations while protecting each individual user's privacy. Unlike Differential Privacy no trust in a central authority is necessary as noise is added to user inputs locally. In this paper we give an overview over different LDP algorithms for problems such as locally private heavy hitter identification and spatial data collection. Finally, we will give an outlook on open problems in LDP.
