In this paper, we propose a trajectory protection method based on stop points obfuscation, which can confront various privacy attacks and preserve the semantic information to achieve adequate utility. Two strategies for stop point selection are designed, including category-distance priority method and Markov matrix method. Our new method was analyzed and evaluated on a real-world trajectory data set. The experiment result shows that our method can improve the utility of the data set and provide multi-level privacy protection.展开更多
