Data publishing techniques have led to breakthroughs in several areas. These tools provide a promising direction. However, when they are applied to private or sensitive data such as patient medical records, the published data may divulge critical patient information. In order to address this issue, we propose a differential private data publishing method (SSKM_DP) based on the SFLA-Kohonen network, which perturbs sensitive attributes based on the maximum information coefficient to achieve a trade-off between security and usability. Additionally, we introduced a single-population frog jump algorithm (SFLA) to optimize the network. Extensive experiments on benchmark datasets have demonstrated that SSKM_DP outperforms state-of-the-art methods for differentially private data publishing techniques significantly.
