The CLEANUP Project


The goal of CLEANUP is to develop new machine learning methods to automatically anonymize text documents with personal data, such as electronic health records, court decisions or chat based interactions with customers.

The main idea of ​​the project is to combine approaches from natural language processing and privacy to design a new generation of anonymization techniques.

The purpose is to modify text documents in a way that prevents the disclosure of personal information, while preserving the internal context and semantic content of the documents.

Partners

The project brings together researchers from machine learning, natural language processing, data protection, statistical modeling, health informatics and IT law.

In addition, partners from the Norwegian public and private sectors (which cover insurance, welfare, health services and legal publishing) contribute to the project with computer and domain knowledge.
