15 صفحه اولTowards an Information Theoretic Metric for Anonymity
In this paper we look closely at the popular metric of anonymity, the anonymity set, and point out a number of problems associated with it. We then propose an alternative information theoretic measure of anonymity which takes into account the probabilities of users sending and receiving the messages and show how to calculate it for a message in a standard mix-based anonymity system. We also use...
متن کاملA Symmetric Information-theoretic Index for the Measurement of Inequality
The application of information theory to the measurement of income inequality has yielded an impressive array of measurement techniques known as Generalized Entropy (GE) measures. Special cases of this class of index include Theil’s T and L measures which are considered axiomatically superior to other types of metrics including the popular Gini coefficient. In this paper we show that the parall...
متن کاملTHE EFFECT OF GENETIC AL AND ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS ON LIPIDS: A TWIN STUDY
To assess the relative contribution of genetic and environmental factors (particularly androgens) on circulating levels of lipid fractions, serum androgen and lipid fractions were measured in 34 pairs of female-female twins aged from 15- 45 years, some of whom were discordant for polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) diagnosed by ultrasound. Nineteen pairs were monozygotic twins (MZ) and 15 pai...
