ABSTRACT

To improve the concealment of the dummy location generated by the dummy location generation algorithm in location privacy and enhance the ability to resist the attacker to deduce the user's real location based on background knowledge, this paper proposes a dummy location generation method based on spatiotemporal correlation. Firstly, the historical query probability is used to preliminarily screen and select the appropriate dummy location set, and then the spurious location set is filtered and optimized by adding the relevant definition of spatial sensitivity metric, and the dummy location with higher concealment is filtered and generated. Then, through theoretical analysis and demonstration, it is verified that the algorithm can effectively resist the attacker's background knowledge inference attack, to improve the concealment of the dummy location. Finally, the future research directions of the dummy location generation method are summarized and prospected.
