Sharing sensitive data is vital in enabling many modern data analysis and machine learning tasks. However, current methods for data release are insufficiently accurate or granular to provide meaningful utility, and they carry a high risk of…
Privacy-preserving data publication, including synthetic data sharing, often experiences trade-offs between privacy and utility. Synthetic data is generally more effective than data anonymization in balancing this trade-off, however, not…
Differentially private (DP) tabular data synthesis generates artificial data that preserves the statistical properties of private data while safeguarding individual privacy. The emergence of diverse algorithms in recent years has introduced…
Differential privacy is a privacy measure based on the difficulty of discriminating between similar input data. In differential privacy analysis, similar data usually implies that their distance does not exceed a predetermined threshold.…
Differential Privacy (DP) is commonly employed to safeguard graph analysis or publishing. Distance, a critical factor in graph analysis, is typically handled using curator DP, where a trusted curator holds the complete neighbor lists of all…
While large-scale face datasets have advanced deep learning-based face analysis, they also raise privacy concerns due to the sensitive personal information they contain. Recent schemes have implemented differential privacy to protect face…
$\epsilon$-Differential privacy (DP) is a well-known privacy model that offers strong privacy guarantees. However, when applied to data releases, DP significantly deteriorates the analytical utility of the protected outcomes. To keep data…
Differential Privacy (DP) considers a scenario in which an adversary has almost complete information about the entries of a database. This worst-case assumption is likely to overestimate the privacy threat faced by an individual in…
Differential privacy (DP) allows the quantification of privacy loss when the data of individuals is subjected to algorithmic processing such as machine learning, as well as the provision of objective privacy guarantees. However, while…
