Introduction: The use of chatbots is becoming increasingly important across various aspects of daily life. However, the privacy concerns associated with these communications have not yet been thoroughly addressed. The aim of this study was…
Trilateration has recently become one of the well-known threat models to the user's location privacy in location-based applications (aka: location-based services or LBS), especially those containing highly sensitive information such as…
The recent emergence of ubiquitous, multi-platform eye tracking has raised user privacy concerns over re-identification across platforms, where a person is re-identified across multiple eye tracking-enabled platforms using personally…
In the XXIth century there is a strong interest on privacy issues. Technology permits obtaining personal information without individuals consent, computers make it feasible to share and process this information, and this can bring about…
The public sharing of user information opens the door for adversaries to infer private data, leading to privacy breaches and facilitating malicious activities. While numerous studies have concentrated on privacy leakage via public user…
A geo-marketplace allows users to be paid for their location data. Users concerned about privacy may want to charge more for data that pinpoints their location accurately, but may charge less for data that is more vague. A buyer would…
User privacy is a crucial concern in robotic applications, especially when mobile service robots are deployed in personal or sensitive environments. However, many robotic downstream tasks require the use of cameras, which may raise privacy…
The rapid advancement of location-based services (LBSs) in three-dimensional (3D) domains, such as smart cities and intelligent transportation, has raised concerns over 3D spatiotemporal trajectory privacy protection. However, existing…
The vision for 6G extends beyond mere communication, incorporating sensing capabilities to facilitate a diverse array of novel applications and services. However, the advent of joint communication and sensing (JCAS) technology introduces…
As machine learning becomes more widely used, the need to study its implications in security and privacy becomes more urgent. Although the body of work in privacy has been steadily growing over the past few years, research on the privacy…
Although the bulk of the research in privacy and statistical disclosure control is designed for cross-sectional data, i.e. data where individuals are observed at one single point in time, longitudinal data, i.e. individuals observed over…
The emergence of "Big Data" as a dominant technology meme challenges Geography's technical underpinnings, found in GIS, while engaging the discipline in a conversation about the meme's impact on society. This allows scholars to engage…
This paper proposes concentrated geo-privacy (CGP), a privacy notion that can be considered as the counterpart of concentrated differential privacy (CDP) for geometric data. Compared with the previous notion of geo-privacy [ABCP13, CABP13],…
