Sharing sensitive medical data sets for research purposes - A case study
Kalpana Singh, Jia Rong, Lynn Batten · 2014
For medical research purposes, having access to large sets of data, often from various regions, improves statistical outcomes of analysis. However, patient data is usually considered to be sensitive and access to it is restricted by law and regulation. This paper employs privatization techniques which enable sharing of sensitive data. We demonstrate a case study on four medical data sets.
