ABCDP privatizes rejection approximate Bayesian computation for sensitive observations. It adds noise to distance and threshold comparisons and uses the Sparse Vector Technique, tying privacy cost to accepted samples rather than rejected candidates, assuming bounded sensitivity. A tuberculosis simulator experiment found mean absolute error fell from 4.51 to 2.10 as dataset size rose from 100 to 1000; these were not real patient data.
