(a) What is the highest k for which this data is k-anonymous? (b) What is the highest l for which this data is l-diverse?
(c) Describe one possible privacy attack on this data
4. In the context of providing differential privacy:
What is global sensitivity G? What is the privacy budget k? How does the G/k ratio affect the noise level?
5. Consider a survey that collects two values from the respondents, e.g., marital status and sex.
Consider a query that takes the survey database as input and outputs a pair of counts (CountNumberFemale,CountNumberMarried). How much can adding or removing an individual affect the output? What is the global sensitivity?
Consider a query that takes the survey database as input and outputs the quadru-
plet of counts (CountMaleMarried,CountMaleSingle,CountFemaleMarried,CountFemaleSingle). How much can adding or removing an individual affect the output? What is the
global sensitivity?

Exam 2018 – Question 4
University X is planning to build a recommender system for its students. Based on subjects they have enrolled in, the system will recommend new subjects they might consider studying in the future.
A table showing a fragment of the data input to the system is below. The columns correspond to the codes of all the subjects in the University handbook. Rows correspond to students and whether they have enrolled in a subject (“Yes” if they have previously enrolled and “-” otherwise). The dataset covers the period 2010-2017, with 100,000 students and 3000 subjects. It is proposed that subject recommendations should be made using user based collaborative filtering.
Explain three challenges for making this recommendation approach effective. 2
