Zusammenfassung

In this paper we address confidentiality issues in distributed data clustering, particularly the inference problem. We present KDEC-S algorithm for distributed data clustering, which is shown to provide mining results while preserving confidentiality of original data. We also present a confidentiality framework with which we can state the confidentiality level of KDEC-S. The underlying idea of KDEC-S is to use an approximation of density estimation such that the original data cannot be reconstructed to a given extent.
