PROJECT TITLE :

Practical Privacy-Preserving MapReduce Based K-Means Clustering over Large-scale Dataset - 2017

ABSTRACT:

Clustering techniques have been widely adopted in several real world knowledge analysis applications, such as client behavior analysis, targeted promoting, digital forensics, etc. With the explosion of knowledge in today’s massive knowledge era, a significant trend to handle a clustering over massive-scale datasets is outsourcing it to public cloud platforms. This is because Cloud Computing offers not solely reliable services with performance guarantees, but conjointly savings on in-house IT infrastructures. However, as datasets used for clustering could contain sensitive information, e.g., patient health information, business knowledge, and behavioral knowledge, etc, directly outsourcing them to public cloud servers inevitably raise privacy considerations.
