argus_microaggregation

Description

calls microaggregation code from mu-argus. In case only one variable should be microaggregated and useOptimal is TRUE, Hansen-Mukherjee polynomial exact method is applied. In any other case, the Mateo-Domingo method is used.

argus_microaggregation(df, k, useOptimal = FALSE)

Arguments

df

a data.frame with only numerical columns
