- This work introduced the notion of on-the-fly privacy for location histograms, which protects the frequency of location visits rather than each visit independently. This novel concept is significant because the on-the-fly setting necessitates protection every time the user visits a location, in contrast to the standard offline bulk data protection. Its analysis guarantees optimally designed location privacy mechanisms especially for location-based mobile applications. The evaluation of these mechanisms is meaningful as it is based on a real mobility dataset with 1083 users. This was a collaboration with Universities of Cardiff and Surrey.
