Microaggregation is one of the most frequently applied statistical disclosure control techniques for continuous data. The basic principle of microaggregation is to group the observations in a data set and to replace them by their corresponding group means. However, while reducing the disclosure...

A problem statistical o±ces are increasingly faced with is guaranteeing confidentiality when releasing microdata sets. One method to provide safe microdata to is to reduce the information content of a data set by means of masking procedures. A widely discussed masking procedure is...

Microaggregation is one of the most important statistical disclosure control techniques for continuous data. The basic principle of microaggregation is to group the observations in a data set and to replace them by their corresponding group means. In this paper, we consider single-axis sorting,...

Microaggregation by individual ranking is one of the most commonly applied disclosure control techniques for continuous microdata. The paper studies the effect of microaggregation by individual ranking on the least squares estimation of a multiple linear regression model in continuous variables....

The paper studies the problem of estimating the upper end point of a finite interval when the data come from a uniform distribution on this interval and are disturbed by normally distributed measurement errors with known variance. Maximum likelihood and method of moments estimators are...
