Stream data from real-time distributed systems such as IoT, tele-health, and crowdsourcing has become an important data source. However, the collection and analysis of user-generated stream data raise privacy concerns due to the potential…
We study discrete distribution estimation under user-level local differential privacy (LDP). In user-level $\varepsilon$-LDP, each user has $m\ge1$ samples and the privacy of all $m$ samples must be preserved simultaneously. We resolve the…
Local differential privacy (LDP) has been deemed as the de facto measure for privacy-preserving distributed data collection and analysis. Recently, researchers have extended LDP to the basic data type in NoSQL systems: the key-value data,…
Protocols satisfying Local Differential Privacy (LDP) enable parties to collect aggregate information about a population while protecting each user's privacy, without relying on a trusted third party. LDP protocols (such as Google's RAPPOR)…
The distributed nature of local differential privacy (LDP) invites data poisoning attacks and poses unforeseen threats to the underlying LDP-supported applications. In this paper, we propose a comprehensive mitigation framework for popular…
Local Differential Privacy (LDP) protocols enable an untrusted data collector to perform privacy-preserving data analytics. In particular, each user locally perturbs its data to preserve privacy before sending it to the data collector, who…
Local differential privacy (LDP), a technique applying unbiased statistical estimations instead of real data, is often adopted in data collection. In particular, this technique is used with frequency oracles (FO) because it can protect each…
In recent years, Local Differential Privacy (LDP), a robust privacy-preserving methodology, has gained widespread adoption in real-world applications. With LDP, users can perturb their data on their devices before sending it out for…
Local differential privacy (LPD) is a distributed variant of differential privacy (DP) in which the obfuscation of the sensitive information is done at the level of the individual records, and in general it is used to sanitize data that are…
Local Differential Privacy (LDP) offers strong privacy guarantees without requiring users to trust external parties. However, LDP applies uniform protection to all data features, including less sensitive ones, which degrades performance of…
Item mining, a fundamental task for collecting statistical data from users, has raised increasing privacy concerns. To address these concerns, local differential privacy (LDP) was proposed as a privacy-preserving technique. Existing LDP…
Organizations with a large user base, such as Samsung and Google, can potentially benefit from collecting and mining users' data. However, doing so raises privacy concerns, and risks accidental privacy breaches with serious consequences.…
Image data has been greatly produced by individuals and commercial vendors in the daily life, and it has been used across various domains, like advertising, medical and traffic analysis. Recently, image data also appears to be greatly…
There are now several large scale deployments of differential privacy used to collect statistical information about users. However, these deployments periodically recollect the data and recompute the statistics using algorithms designed for…
Local Differential Privacy (LDP) is the gold standard trust model for privacy-preserving machine learning by guaranteeing privacy at the data source. However, its application to image data has long been considered impractical due to the…
Recent years, local differential privacy (LDP) has been adopted by many web service providers like Google \cite{erlingsson2014rappor}, Apple \cite{apple2017privacy} and Microsoft \cite{bolin2017telemetry} to collect and analyse users' data…
The rapid growth of smart devices such as phones, wearables, IoT sensors, and connected vehicles has led to an explosion of continuous time series data that offers valuable insights in healthcare, transportation, and more. However, this…
Local Differential Privacy (LDP) protocols allow an aggregator to obtain population statistics about sensitive data of a userbase, while protecting the privacy of the individual users. To understand the tradeoff between aggregator utility…
Local differential privacy (LDP) is a model where users send privatized data to an untrusted central server whose goal it to solve some data analysis task. In the non-interactive version of this model the protocol consists of a single round…
Local differential privacy (LDP) is a strong notion of privacy for individual users that often comes at the expense of a significant drop in utility. The classical definition of LDP assumes that all elements in the data domain are equally…
