abstract: Data from statistical agencies and other institutions are mostly confidential.
  This package, introduced in Templ, Kowarik and Meindl (2017) <https://doi.org/10.18637/jss.v067.i04>,
  can be used for the generation of anonymized (micro)data, i.e. for the creation
  of public- and scientific-use files. The theoretical basis for the methods implemented
  can be found in Templ (2017) <https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-50272-4>. Various
  risk estimation and anonymization methods are included. Note that the package includes
  a graphical user interface published in Meindl and Templ (2019) <https://doi.org/10.3390/a12090191>
  that allows to use various methods of this package.
