Description

Find the location of the maximum direct error between a non-private PDF and a DP approximation of that PDF.

Usage

1
MaxErrorAt_PDF(Y, est, range, gran, ...)

Arguments

Y

The vector output of a non-differentially private PDF computation (values within bins)

est

The vector output of a differentially private PDF computation (values within bins)

range

A vector length 2 containing user-specified min and max to truncate the universe to

gran

The smallest unit of measurement in the data (one [year] for a list of ages)

...

Optionally add additional parameters. This is primarily used to allow automated execution of varied diagnostic functions.

Value

A single value, the value at which the largest absolute vertical difference between parallel observations in the private- and true-PDF vectors occurs.
