The ever-growing demand for electrical energy of sensing devices in the Internet of Things (IoT) has led to generating large amounts of electricity consumption data. Electricity service providers often use wireless sensor networks to collect sensing devices' electricity consumption data for statistical analysis, so as to provide sensing devices with improved electrical services. As an important data mining technique, while data clustering excels in dealing with such massive data, it imposes the risk of privacy disclosure in the process of data clustering. In an effort of solving this problem, Blum et al. proposed a differential privacy k-means algorithm, effectively preventing privacy disclosure. However, the availability of data clustering results is reduced due to the data distortion in Blum's algorithm. In this paper, we propose a privacy and availability data clustering (PADC) scheme based on k -means algorithm and differential …
