  1. Section 6.4.4: Data Anonymization techniques are only mentioned in conjunction with synthetic data, but it is also used with real data. For real data, anonymization is crucial for protecting privacy and sensitive information. Common techniques include:
  • Masking (replacing sensitive values with asterisks or dummy characters)
  • Generalization (reducing the precision of data like ages into ranges)
  • Pseudonymization (replacing identifiers with artificial ones)
  • k-anonymity (ensuring each record shares characteristics with at least k-1 other records)
  • Differential privacy (adding statistical noise while preserving overall patterns)
  1. Exercise 6.3 is outdated. It should be replaced or updated.

@18jeffreyma could you help make a pass on this based on the feedback?

I created a branch, as you can see on the right 637-chapter-6-61-to-65-issues---suggestions, so if you can use that that would be great.
