Our answer to this question is probably less than satisfactory because it simply depends. What does it depend on? Phileas' performance is heavily dependent upon your individual data. Sharing to compare metrics of Phileas' performance between different customer datasets is like comparing apples and oranges.</p> <p>If your data is not exactly like another customer's data then the metrics will not be applicable to your data. In terms of the classic information retrieval metrics precision and recall, comparing these values between customers can give false impressions about Phileas' performance, both good and bad.</p> <p>This guide walks you through how to evaluate Phileas' performance.

For example, all types can be replaced or redacted, but only dates can be shifted and only zip codes can be truncated. How a de-identification method is applied by Philter is called a filter strategy. Each type of sensitive information can have one or more filter strategies, and the combination of the filter strategies you select is called a policy. A policy determines how a document will be de-identified.</p> <p>The following is a list of de-identification methods that describes how each method works and its applicability to our Philter software. De-identifying a document is likely to require a combination of the following methods. For instance, you may want to redact names, encrypt credit card numbers, and shift appointment dates.</p> De-identification MethodDescriptionReplacementReplaces sensitive information with a defined value. For example, you might want to replace a credit card number with the literal value \"CREDIT_CARD_NUMBER\".Redaction and MaskingRemoves sensitive information. Our Philter software gives you a choice of how to remove the sensitive information, whether it is by replacing it with ***** (masking) or by some other set of characters.EncryptionEncrypts sensitive information.Date ShiftingShifts dates either forward or backward by some interval.BucketingCategorizes data into buckets based on the data. Examples of bucketing is Philter can bucket dates into years, and zip codes by population. <p>A difference between Philter and other services is that Philter does not send your data to a third-party for de-identification.

Refer to Phileas' Settings to enable and configure span disambiguation.</p> <p>In Phileas, a span is a piece of the input text that Phileas has identified as sensitive information. A span has a start and end positions, a confidence, a type, and other attributes. Ideally, each piece of identified sensitive information will only have a single span associated with it. In this case, the type of sensitive information is unambiguous. The goal of span disambiguation is provide more accurate filtering by removing the potential ambiguities in the types of sensitive information for duplicate spans.</p> <p>However, sometimes a piece of text can be identified by multiple spans, each having a different type of sensitive information. In an example hypothetical scenario, let's say given the input text <code>My SSN is 123456789.</code> , Phileas identifies <code>123456789</code> as an SSN and as a phone number. This type of scenario can be quite common, and its likelihood increases as the number of enabled filters in a policy increase.</p>"},{"location":"other_features/span_disambiguation/#how-phileas-span-disambiguation-works","title":"How Phileas' Span Disambiguation Works","text":"<p>When we read the sentence <code>My SSN is 123456789.</code> we can tell the span in question should be identified as an SSN because we can look at the text surrounding the span. We use the surrounding words to deduce the correct type of sensitive information for <code>123456789</code>.</p> <p>That is exactly how Phileas' span disambiguation works. When presented with identical spans differing only by the type of sensitive information, Phileas looks at the text surrounding the span in question in combination with the previous spans it has seen in the same context to determine which type of sensitive information is most likely to be correct. Phileas then removes the ambiguous spans from the results and replaces them with a single span.</p>"},{"location":"other_features/span_disambiguation/#improves-over-time","title":"Improves Over Time","text":"<p>Because Phileas is able to consider previously seen text to make its decision concerning ambiguous spans, Phileas' span disambiguation gets \"smarter\" as more text is filtered.

For example, all types can be replaced or redacted, but only dates can be shifted and only zip codes can be truncated. How a de-identification method is applied by Philter is called a filter strategy. Each type of sensitive information can have one or more filter strategies, and the combination of the filter strategies you select is called a policy. A policy determines how a document will be de-identified.</p> <p>The following is a list of de-identification methods that describes how each method works and its applicability to our Philter software. De-identifying a document is likely to require a combination of the following methods.

For example, you might want to replace a credit card number with the literal value \"CREDIT_CARD_NUMBER\".Redaction and MaskingRemoves sensitive information.

Examples of bucketing is Philter can bucket dates into years, and zip codes by population. <p>A difference between Philter and other services is that Philter does not send your data to a third-party for de-identification.

When enabled on the context level, \"John Smith\" will be replaced by \"Pete Baker\" whenever \"John Smith\" is found in all documents in the same context.</p> <p>Enabling consistent anonymization on the context level requires a cache to store the sensitive information and the corresponding replacement values. If a single instance of Phileas is running, its internal cache service (enabled by default) is the best choice and no additional configuration is required.</p> <p>If multiple instances of Phileas are deployed together, Phileas requires access to a Redis cache service as shown below.

Refer to Phileas' Settings to enable and configure span disambiguation.</p> <p>In Phileas, a span is a piece of the input text that Phileas has identified as sensitive information. A span has a start and end positions, a confidence, a type, and other attributes. Ideally, each piece of identified sensitive information will only have a single span associated with it. In this case, the type of sensitive information is unambiguous. The goal of span disambiguation is provide more accurate filtering by removing the potential ambiguities in the types of sensitive information for duplicate spans.</p> <p>However, sometimes a piece of text can be identified by multiple spans, each having a different type of sensitive information. In an example hypothetical scenario, let's say given the input text <code>My SSN is 123456789.</code> , Phileas identifies <code>123456789</code> as an SSN and as a phone number. This type of scenario can be quite common, and its likelihood increases as the number of enabled filters in a policy increase.</p>"},{"location":"other_features/span_disambiguation/#how-phileas-span-disambiguation-works","title":"How Phileas' Span Disambiguation Works","text":"<p>When we read the sentence <code>My SSN is 123456789.</code> we can tell the span in question should be identified as an SSN because we can look at the text surrounding the span. We use the surrounding words to deduce the correct type of sensitive information for <code>123456789</code>.</p> <p>That is exactly how Phileas' span disambiguation works. When presented with identical spans differing only by the type of sensitive information, Phileas looks at the text surrounding the span in question in combination with the previous spans it has seen in the same context to determine which type of sensitive information is most likely to be correct. Phileas then removes the ambiguous spans from the results and replaces them with a single span.</p>"},{"location":"other_features/span_disambiguation/#improves-over-time","title":"Improves Over Time","text":"<p>Because Phileas is able to consider previously seen text to make its decision concerning ambiguous spans, Phileas' span disambiguation gets \"smarter\" as more text is filtered.
