sdcMicro - Statistical Disclosure Control Methods for Anonymization of Data and Risk Estimation

Data from statistical agencies and other institutions are mostly confidential. This package, introduced in Templ, Kowarik and Meindl (2017) <doi:10.18637/jss.v067.i04>, can be used for the generation of anonymized (micro)data, i.e. for the creation of public- and scientific-use files. The theoretical basis for the methods implemented can be found in Templ (2017) <doi:10.1007/978-3-319-50272-4>. Various risk estimation and anonymization methods are included. Note that the package includes a graphical user interface published in Meindl and Templ (2019) <doi:10.3390/a12090191> that allows to use various methods of this package.

ptable - Generation of Perturbation Tables for the Cell-Key Method

Tabular data from statistical institutes and agencies are mostly confidential and must be protected prior to publications. The cell-key method is a post-tabular Statistical Disclosure Control perturbation technique that adds random noise to tabular data. The statistical properties of the perturbations are defined by some noise probability distributions - also referred to as perturbation tables. This tool can be used to create the perturbation tables based on a maximum entropy approach as described for example in Giessing (2016) <doi:10.1007/978-3-319-45381-1_18>. The perturbation tables created can finally be used to apply a cell-key method to frequency count or magnitude tables.

sdcTable - Methods for Statistical Disclosure Control in Tabular Data

Methods for statistical disclosure control in tabular data such as primary and secondary cell suppression as described for example in Hundepol et al. (2012) <doi:10.1002/9781118348239> are covered in this package.

cellKey - Consistent Perturbation of Statistical Frequency- And Magnitude Tables

Data from statistical agencies and other institutions often need to be protected before they can be published. This package can be used to perturb statistical tables in a consistent way. The main idea is to add - at the micro data level - a record key for each unit. Based on these keys, for any cell in a statistical table a cell key is computed as a function on the record keys contributing to a specific cell. Values that are added to the cell in order to perturb it are derived from a lookup-table that maps values of cell keys to specific perturbation values. The theoretical basis for the methods implemented can be found in Thompson, Broadfoot and Elazar (2013) <https://unece.org/fileadmin/DAM/stats/documents/ece/ces/ge.46/2013/Topic_1_ABS.pdf> which was extended and enhanced by Giessing and Tent (2019) <https://unece.org/fileadmin/DAM/stats/documents/ece/ces/ge.46/2019/mtg1/SDC2019_S2_Germany_Giessing_Tent_AD.pdf>.
