Abstract

Systems and methods for computing data privacy-utility tradeoff is disclosed. Large data hubs like data marketplace are a source of data that may be of utility to data buyers. However, output data provided to data sellers is required to meet the privacy requirements of data sellers and at the same time maintain a level of utility to data buyers. Conventionally known methods of achieving data privacy tend to suppress components of data that may result in reduced utility of the data. Systems and methods of the present disclosure compute this tradeoff to establish need for data transformation, if any, before data is shared with data sellers.
