Anatomy: Simple and Effective Privacy Preservation

Summary: Anatomy publishes QIs and sensitive values in two tables, enabling l-diversity while preserving microdata correlations. Linear-time algorithm builds anatomized tables, enabling accurate aggregates with average error below 10%, far better than generalization. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
