  • Publication number: 20260320231
    Abstract: Methods and systems for anonymizing time-series data are disclosed. An anonymizing computer can generate an anonymized sequence of time-series data that can share many useful properties, patterns, or characteristics with a private sequence of time-series data, without revealing sensitive or private information about the private sequence of time-series data. This may enable data researchers and scientists to study the anonymized sequence of time-series data in lieu of the private sequence of time-series data, thereby preserving the privacy of data subjects (e.g., people) corresponding to the private sequence of time-series data. The anonymized sequence of time-series data can be generated using an iterative optimization process that can involve updating the anonymized sequence of time-series data to minimize a loss value. The loss value can correspond to both the utility and privacy of the anonymized sequence of time-series data.
