geometric constructor

Equivalent to make_laplace but restricted to an integer support. Can specify bounds to run the algorithm in near constant-time.

Usage

make_geometric(
  input_domain,
  input_metric,
  scale,
  bounds = NULL,
  .MO = "MaxDivergence"
)

Arguments

input_domain

Domain of the data type to be privatized.

input_metric

Metric of the data type to be privatized.

scale

Noise scale parameter for the distribution. scale == standard_deviation / sqrt(2).

bounds

Set bounds on the count to make the algorithm run in constant-time.

.MO

Measure used to quantify privacy loss. Valid values are just MaxDivergence

Value

Measurement
