Best Arm Identification (BAI) problems are progressively used for data-sensitive applications, such as designing adaptive clinical trials, tuning hyper-parameters, and conducting user studies. Motivated by the data privacy concerns invoked…
In this work, we give a new technique for analyzing individualized privacy accounting via the following simple observation: if an algorithm is one-sided add-DP, then its subsampled variant satisfies two-sided DP. From this, we obtain…
Federated learning is distributed model training across several clients without disclosing raw data. Despite advancements in data privacy, risks still remain. Differential Privacy (DP) is a technique to protect sensitive data by adding…
We consider the minimax estimation problem of a discrete distribution with support size $k$ under privacy constraints. A privatization scheme is applied to each raw sample independently, and we need to estimate the distribution of the raw…
Computing matchings in graphs is a foundational algorithmic task. Despite extensive interest in differentially private (DP) graph analysis, work on privately computing matching solutions, rather than just their size, has been sparse. The…
Shuffling is a powerful way to amplify privacy of a local randomizer in private distributed data analysis. Most existing analyses of how shuffling amplifies privacy are based on the pure local differential privacy (DP) parameter…

Accounting for privacy loss under fully adaptive composition -- where mechanism choice and privacy parameters may depend on the history of prior outputs -- is a central challenge in differential privacy (DP). Here, privacy filters are…
