Setting Epsilon and Global Sensitivity

In these exercises, you'll first be calculating the global sensitivity of your multiple queries and correctly assigning the value of epsilon before applying the Laplace mechanism. For the Male Fertility Data (fertility), your queries are:

  1. How many participants were evaluated in winter?
  2. How many participants were evaluated in spring?
  3. How many participants were evaluated in summer?
  4. How many participants were evaluated in fall?
Instructions

  • Set the value of epsilon using the initial privacy budget of 0.5 and taking into account Sequential Composition as well as Post-processing in mind.
  • Calculate the global sensitivity of counts for Season.
  • Find the number of participants in each of the four seasons using count().
