V. Torra (2022) Guide to Data Privacy: Models, Technologies, Solutions, Springer.
Introductory text to the field of data privacy, based on my lectures and my own research. It described privacy models (e.g., differential privacy, k-anonymity, privacy from re-identification, homomorphic encryption, secure multiparty computation), and devoted chapters to implementations for these privacy models (e.g., algorithms for differential privacy and k-anonymity, and examples of secure multiparty computation). This book belongs to Springer series title Undergraduate Topics in Computer Science (UTICS). Slides and code related to the book here |

If you are planning to invite me to review a paper the following is of your interest:
I am over-committed with reviews. So, I tend to decline reviews unless I am in the editorial board of the journal, the program committee of the conference, or it is an invitation from a journal in which I regularly publish. In particular, I decline by default all papers on hesitant fuzzy sets (I am very sorry but I have no time to read them all). Naturally, if a paper seems very interesting to me I may override these rules.

Llibre editat: |
Alan Said, Vicenç Torra (2019) Data Science in Practice, Springer.
"Data science is the science of data. Its goal is to explain processes and objects through the available data. The explanation is expected to be objective and accurate enough to make predictions. The ultimate goal of the explanations is to make informed decisions based on the knowledge extracted from the underlying data" (Chapter 1). This book approaches big data, artificial intelligence, machine learning, and business intelligence through the lens of Data Science. The book is structured into three parts: (i) the core concepts of data science, (ii) application domains, and (iii) specific tools for data science. |
