Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present application more apparent, the technical solutions of the present application will be described in detail and completely with reference to the following specific embodiments of the present application and the accompanying drawings. It should be apparent that the described embodiments are only some of the embodiments of the present application, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present application.
Currently, because a problem such as a benefit conflict may be involved in an NPS investigation process, a login-free investigation method is often adopted to protect user privacy, but the login-free investigation method is prone to receiving an invalid questionnaire or being attacked maliciously, and therefore investigation effect is poor. To this end, in some embodiments of the present application: aiming at survey questions providing more than two selectable options, a new questionnaire survey scheme is provided, so that real options given by a target user aiming at the target questions can be obtained; carrying out differential privacy processing on the real option to obtain a denoised answer; based on the above, the noisy answers of the target user and other users can be subjected to statistical analysis and unbiased estimation to obtain the survey result under the target question. Therefore, in the embodiment of the application, differential privacy protection can be performed on the questionnaire answers given by the user locally, so that the data privacy in the data transmission process is fully ensured; the statistical analysis work is based on the noisy answers corresponding to the users participating in the questionnaire, so that the real options given by the users cannot be revealed in the statistical analysis result; the unbiased estimation operation can restore the survey result from the overall distribution dimensionality as truly as possible based on the statistical analysis result, and data processing of the single user dimensionality is not involved in the process, so that the privacy of the user data can be guaranteed in each link of the questionnaire survey, the user is encouraged to answer according to the real idea, the questionnaire quality can be effectively improved, and the more valuable survey result can be obtained.
The technical solutions provided by the embodiments of the present application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
Fig. 1 is a schematic flow chart of a questionnaire survey method according to an exemplary embodiment of the present application. Fig. 2 is a logic diagram of a questionnaire survey plan provided in an exemplary embodiment of the present application. Referring to fig. 1, the method may include:
step 100, acquiring real options given by a target user for a target question, wherein more than two selectable options are provided in the target question;
step 101, carrying out differential privacy processing on the real options to obtain answers after noise addition;
102, acquiring noisy answers of other users for a target question;
and 103, carrying out statistical analysis and unbiased estimation on the noisy answers of the target user and other users to obtain a survey result under the target question.
The questionnaire survey method provided by the embodiment can be applied to the investigation scene of the multi-value questions. Wherein, the multi-value question refers to a survey question that can provide more than two selectable options. For example, the target question in this embodiment may be a net recommendation NPS question, which may provide more than two scores as selectable options, such as 0-10 scores as selectable options, and the user may select a corresponding score from 0-10 scores according to a real use feeling.
It should be understood that one or more survey questions may exist in the questionnaire, and for convenience of description, the description of the questionnaire survey plan will be made from the perspective of a single survey question in the present embodiment, but in practical applications, the questionnaire survey plan provided by the present embodiment may be used to output the survey results for a plurality of survey questions, respectively, to complete the questionnaire survey.
In this embodiment, the implementation architecture of the questionnaire survey scheme is not specifically limited, and for example, a CS architecture may be adopted, and a server and a terminal device of a user are used to cooperate, and a survey result is output by the server. Of course, the P2P architecture may also be adopted, and the terminal device may output the survey result by using the interaction between the terminal devices of the users. In this embodiment, the description of each step will not be limited to an execution subject, and in different implementation architectures, the relevant step may be adapted to the corresponding execution subject as needed.
In this embodiment, more than two selectable options may be configured for the target issue. Based on this, referring to fig. 1 and 2, in step 100, the target user may give real options for the target question. For example, for the NPS problem, the user may determine his score from 0-10 points based on the experience of use. In this way, the real options given by the target user for the target problem can be obtained. The questionnaire survey scheme provided by the embodiment can encourage the user to answer the questionnaire in the login state, and for this reason, in step 100, the identity information of the target user can be acquired. It should be noted that the login form of the user is not limited in this embodiment. For example, currently, most user terminals may default to log in with a user ID (for example, a user ID in an android phone system or an IOS phone system), and in this login form, an authorized user ID in the user terminal may be obtained as the identity information in this embodiment. For another example, the target user may register and log in a questionnaire survey application (APP or applet) running in the user terminal, and in this login form, in this embodiment, the registration information of the user may be obtained as the identity information. Accordingly, in this embodiment, the identity information of the target user can be obtained, and the association between the real option and the identity information of the target user can be established, so as to mark the user corresponding to the real option.
In view of the fact that the target question may relate to user privacy or conflict of interests, in step 101, the real options given by the target user may be subjected to differential privacy processing to obtain a noisy answer. Differential privacy (differential privacy) is a means in cryptography, and aims to maximize the accuracy of data query and minimize the opportunity of identifying records thereof when performing data query.
In step 101, a differential privacy process may be performed on the real option given by the target user in a local differential privacy manner, for example, the differential privacy process may be performed in a local (i.e., user-side) designated APP or web page H5. After the differential privacy processing, the true option given by the target user cannot be determined from the noisy answer, so that the data privacy of the target user can be effectively protected from the source.
In this way, a noisy answer corresponding to the true choice of the target user may be generated. In addition, in the same way, the noisy answer corresponding to the real option given by other users under the target question can be generated. Based on the above, the noise-added answers of the target user and other users can be used as the survey basis.
Referring to fig. 1 and 2, in step 103, the noisy answers of the target user and other users may be statistically analyzed and unbiased estimated to obtain the survey results under the target question. The statistical analysis operation may include, but is not limited to, counting, distribution, and the like, which is not limited in this embodiment, and in this embodiment, specific logic of the statistical analysis may be configured as needed. For example, for the NPS problem, the number of people or the proportion corresponding to each score may be counted.
And performing statistical analysis on the noisy answers to obtain a statistical result, and performing unbiased estimation on the statistical result to determine a survey result under the target problem.
Therefore, in the embodiment, a new questionnaire survey scheme is provided for survey questions providing more than two selectable options, so that the real options given by the target user for the target questions can be obtained; carrying out differential privacy processing on the real option to obtain a denoised answer; based on the above, the noisy answers of the target user and other users can be subjected to statistical analysis and unbiased estimation to obtain the survey result under the target question. Therefore, in the embodiment of the application, differential privacy protection can be performed on the questionnaire answers given by the user locally, so that the data privacy in the data transmission process is fully ensured; the statistical analysis work is based on the noisy answers corresponding to the users participating in the questionnaire, so that the real options given by the users cannot be revealed in the statistical analysis result; the unbiased estimation operation can restore the survey result from the overall distribution dimensionality as truly as possible based on the statistical analysis result, and data processing of the single user dimensionality is not involved in the process, so that the privacy of the user data can be guaranteed in each link of the questionnaire survey, the user is encouraged to answer according to the real idea, the questionnaire quality can be effectively improved, and the more valuable survey result can be obtained.
In the above or below embodiments, various implementations may be employed to perform differential privacy processing on real options.
In an alternative implementation, the true choice may be noisy according to a random response mechanism to obtain a noisy answer. Here, the random response is a narrow concept, and can be understood as a mechanism for randomly transferring a real option. In this implementation, the noising of the true option may be achieved by randomly shifting the true option to other options.
In the implementation mode, a transfer matrix corresponding to the target problem can be configured, wherein the transfer matrix comprises the probability of mutual transfer among all selectable options; and performing transfer processing on the real options based on the transfer matrix so as to determine post-transfer options from the selectable options provided by the target question as the post-noise answer.
Wherein the transition matrix can be characterized as:
Figure BDA0003232313820000051
wherein t represents the number of selectable options provided by the target question; puvRepresenting the probability of option v transitioning to option u after differential privacy. In this way, the transition matrix may include probabilities of transitions between the selectable options provided by the target issue.
In addition, the transition matrix should satisfy the differential privacy definition, and in an exemplary scheme, the probability of the transition of the first option to each selectable option provided by the target question may be determined based on the number of selectable options provided by the target question, with the goal that the sum of the probabilities of the transition of the first option to each selectable option provided by the target question is equal to 1 for the first option; transferring the probability of the first option to each selectable option provided by the target problem as a row/column in a transfer matrix; wherein the first option is any one of the selectable options provided by the target question.
This exemplary scheme may determine the values of the elements in the transition matrix as follows:
Figure BDA0003232313820000052
that is, in the case where u ═ v, the probability value is calculated according to the formula of the first row; and in the case that u ≠ v, calculating a probability value according to an equation of a second row, wherein e is a natural logarithm and epsilon is a differential privacy parameter. In this way, the sum value is 1 for any row in the transition matrix P, so that the differential privacy definition can be satisfied. Of course, in this embodiment, other schemes may also be used to determine the element values in the transition matrix, for example, user specification, and the like.
In this way, it is possible to configure the transition matrix for the target problem. On the basis, the real options of at least one user under the target question can be respectively subjected to transfer processing based on the transfer matrix so as to generate a noisy answer of at least one user. Also in the case of the real option of the target user, the real option of the target user may be subjected to a transfer process based on the transfer matrix, during which the real option of the target user is probabilistically transferred to any selectable option provided by the target question (including the real option itself). For example, for the NPS problem, if the real option given by the target user is 6 points, based on the transition matrix, the 6 points may be shifted to 7 points, 1 point, or 6 points, and it is this randomness, which can ensure the privacy of the noisy answer, that is, the noisy answer does not show the real option of the target user.
In another implementation, the true options of the target user may be noisy according to the laplacian mechanism to obtain a noisy answer.
In this implementation, noise may be generated for the true option based on the laplacian distribution; adding noise to the real option; and according to a preset mapping rule, mapping the real options subjected to noise addition to target options in all selectable options provided by the target question as answers after noise addition.
An exemplary mapping rule may include: and mapping the real options after noise addition to the nearest selectable options.
In an NPS problem scenario, an exemplary mapping rule may be characterized as:
Figure BDA0003232313820000061
wherein x isiRepresenting the actual option given by the target user, yiDenotes xiCorresponding noise-added answers;
Figure BDA0003232313820000062
random noise conforming to the laplacian distribution can be represented. Alternatively, to maximize the sum of diagonal elements in the distribution matrix corresponding to the laplacian distribution, we can set cuU +0.5, u ∈ {1,2, … t-1}, t denotes the number of selectable options, and 1,2, u, t denote t selectable options provided by the target question, e.g., scores. In this way, in the event that the noisy real option is not aligned with any of the selectable options, the noisy real option may be mapped to the closest selectable option to it. For example, if the real option is 6 points, laplacian noise may be added for 6 points, and if 6 points after noise addition become 4.3 points, 6 points may be mapped to 4 points. Due to laplace noise
Figure BDA0003232313820000063
The method has randomness, so that the randomness of the answer after noise addition can be ensured, and the answer after noise addition cannot reveal real options.
In this implementation, an exemplary laplace distribution can be designed as follows:
Figure BDA0003232313820000064
wherein,
Figure BDA0003232313820000065
a cumulative distribution function representing a Laplace distribution, t representing the number of selectable options, PuvRepresenting the probability that option v is laplacian mapped to option u. According to different values of u, the probability value can be calculated by using the formula under the corresponding row. Accordingly, a laplacian distribution can be obtained, and the differential privacy definition is met. Of course, in this embodiment, other schemes may be used to determine each element in the laplacian distributionPrime number PuvFor example, the user specifies the mode, and the embodiment is not limited thereto.
Therefore, the real options can be subjected to noise addition based on the Laplace distribution, and the answer after noise addition is obtained.
The two alternative implementations can be distinguished in that the way of adding noise by the laplacian mechanism defaults that adjacent attributes have similar semantics, and the transfer operation in the random response mechanism can not take this similar semantics into account. Therefore, through experiments, a random response mechanism can be adopted to obtain a better investigation result.
It should be noted that, in this embodiment, other implementation manners may also be adopted to perform the difference privacy processing on the real option of the target user, and this embodiment is not limited to the two exemplary implementation manners described above.
On this basis, in the embodiment, the noisy answers of the target user and other users can be subjected to statistical analysis to obtain statistical distribution; carrying out unbiased estimation according to the statistical distribution and the transfer matrix/Laplace distribution to obtain real distribution; and generating a survey result under the target problem based on the real distribution.
Where the statistical distribution can be represented as λ, the true distribution can be represented as π, and the transfer matrix/Laplace distribution can be represented as P, then the equation can exist:
λ=Pπ
based on this equation, the process of unbiased estimation can be expressed as:
Figure BDA0003232313820000071
that is, an unbiased estimate of the true distribution π can be obtained based on the statistical distribution λ. In this embodiment, the statistical distribution and the real distribution may include statistical values under each selectable option. For example, for NPS problems, the number of people or the proportion at each score, etc. may be included in the statistical distribution and the true distribution. In this way, the survey results under the desired target problem can be generated from the true distribution.
In the embodiment, the real options can be packaged into the answers after noise addition by performing differential privacy processing on the real options of the target user, so that the answers after noise addition cannot show the real answers provided by the target user, and the privacy of the target user is protected, so that the target user can provide the real answers without worrying about interference of external privacy such as benefit conflict and the like, and the authenticity of the user in the answering stage is improved; the real distribution can be fully restored through unbiased estimation, and the accuracy of the obtained real distribution can be improved in a statistical stage. In this way, the authenticity of the investigation result can be improved from at least the two aspects described above.
It should be noted that the execution subjects of the steps of the methods provided in the above embodiments may be the same device, or different devices may be used as the execution subjects of the methods. For example, the execution subjects of steps 100 to 103 may be device a; for another example, the execution subject of steps 100 and 101 may be device a, and the execution subject of steps 102 and 103 may be device B; and so on.
