1) The document discusses a system for privacy-preserving collaborative tagging of data. It uses techniques like tag suppression and support vector machines to classify and obscure sensitive data.
2) The proposed architecture enhances tagging services with additional components like tag suppression, support vector machines, and unsupervised duplicate detection. Tag suppression separates normal and sensitive data, with only authorized users accessing sensitive information. Support vector machines classify data based on keywords, while duplicate detection removes replicated data.
3) The system aims to protect user privacy during collaborative tagging by obscuring tags that reveal interests, while still enabling search and retrieval. Classification and duplicate removal organize the data before authorized access.
