Abstract: Most of the data privacy research has been focused on more traditional data models such as microdata. But private data often comes in the form of associations between entities, such as customers and products bought from a pharmacy. However, the focus has mostly been on tabular data, rather than associations. We give an approach for anonymizing associations which can be represented as bipartite graphs. We present a greedy maximum match group algorithm for anonymizing bipartite graph. These groups preserve the underlying graph structure, and instead anonymize the mapping from entities to nodes of the graph. We perform experiments on bipartite graph data to study the utility and information loss measure.
