Abstract
A computer-implemented method for privacy-preserving data mining to determine cancer survival rates includes providing a random matrix B agreed to by a plurality of entities, wherein each entity i possesses a data matrix Ai of cancer survival data that is not publicly available, providing a class matrix Di for each of the data matrices Ai, providing a kernel K(Ai, B) by each of said plurality of entities to allow public computation of a full kernel, and computing a binary classifier that incorporates said public full kernel, wherein said classifier is adapted to classify a new data vector according to a sign of said classifier.
