Abstract: In this paper, we initiate the study of Euclidean clustering with Distance-based differential privacy. Distance-based privacy is motivated by the fact that it is often only needed to protect the privacy of exact, rather than approximate, locations. We provide constant-approximate algorithms for $k$-means and $k$-median clustering, with additive error depending only on the attacker's precision bound $\rho$, rather than the radius $\Lambda$ of the space. In addition, we empirically demonstrate that our algorithm performs significantly better than previous differentially private clustering algorithms, as well as naive distance-based private clustering baselines.
