Abstract
Location privacy preserving for location-based social networks (LBSNs) has been attracting a great deal of attention. Existing location privacy protection methods are disadvantaged by issues such as information leakage and low data availability, which are no longer suitable for the current diverse and personalized location-based services. To address these issues, we propose a differential privacy-based spatial-temporal trajectory clustering (DP-STTC) scheme, which mainly transforms the existing location privacy protection mechanism into a spatial-temporal trajectory protection mechanism by adjusting the privacy parameters. Then, the trajectories were clustered to uncover users with similar trajectory characteristics. Finally, experiments were conducted on two real datasets. The experimental results show that our DP-STTC scheme can not only achieve better accuracy in trajectory clustering, but also protect user privacy.
