Researchers need a rich trove of genomic datasets that they can leverage to gain a better understanding of the genetic basis of the human genome and identify associations between phenol-types and specific parts of DNA. However, sharing genomic datasets that include sensitive genetic or medical information of individuals can lead to serious privacy-related consequences if data lands in the wrong hands. Restricting access to genomic datasets is one solution, but this greatly reduces their usefulness for research purposes.

Motivation: Rapid and low cost sequencing of genomes enabled widespread use of genomic data in research studies and personalized customer applications, where genomic data is shared in public databases. Although the identities of the participants are anonymized in these databases, sensitive information about individuals can still be inferred. One such information is kinship.
