Abstract: Many areas are now experiencing data streams that contain privacy-sensitive information. Although the sharing and release of these data are of great commercial value, if these data are released directly, the private user information in the data will be disclosed. Therefore, how to continuously generate publishable histograms (meeting privacy protection requirements) based on sliding data-stream windows has become a critical issue, especially when sending data to an untrusted third party. Existing histogram publication methods are unsatisfactory in terms of time and storage costs, because they must cache all elements in the current sliding window (SW). Our work addresses this drawback by designing the Efficient Online Histogram Publication (EOHP) method for LDP data streams. Specifically, in the EOHP method, the data collector first crafts a histogram of the current SW using an approximate counting method. Second, the data collector reduces the privacy budget by using the Optimized Budget Absorption (OBA) mechanism and adds appropriate noise to the approximate histogram, making it possible to publish the histogram while retaining satisfactory data utility. Extensive experimental results on two different real datasets show that the EOHP algorithm significantly reduces the time and storage cost and improves data utility compared to other existing algorithms.
