Third-party analysis on private records is becoming increasingly important due to the widespread data collection for various analysis purposes. However, the data in its original form often contains sensitive information about individuals,…
Increasingly more attention is paid to the privacy in online applications due to the widespread data collection for various analysis purposes. Sensitive information might be mined from the raw data during the analysis, and this led to a…
The exponential growth of collected, processed, and shared microdata has given rise to concerns about individuals' privacy. As a result, laws and regulations have emerged to control what organisations do with microdata and how they protect…
This paper studies optimal mechanisms for collecting and trading data. Consumers benefit from revealing information about their tastes to a service provider because this improves the service. However, the information is also valuable to a…
Differential privacy is typically studied in the central model where a trusted "aggregator" holds the sensitive data of all the individuals and is responsible for protecting their privacy. A popular alternative is the local model in which…
Data privacy protection is garnering increased attention among researchers. Diffusion models (DMs), particularly with strict differential privacy, can potentially produce images with both high privacy and visual quality. However, challenges…
In Europe and indeed worldwide, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) provides protection to individuals regarding their personal data in the face of new technological developments. GDPR is widely viewed as the benchmark for data…
The emergence of big data, AI and machine learning has allowed sellers and online platforms to tailor pricing for customers in real-time. While online algorithmic pricing can increase efficiency, market welfare, and optimize pricing…
Deep learning-based linkage of records across different databases is becoming increasingly useful in data integration and mining applications to discover new insights from multiple sources of data. However, due to privacy and…
In crowdsourcing markets, there are two different type jobs, i.e. homogeneous jobs and heterogeneous jobs, which need to be allocated to workers. Incentive mechanisms are essential to attract extensive user participating for achieving good…
Process mining techniques such as process discovery and conformance checking provide insights into actual processes by analyzing event data that are widely available in information systems. These data are very valuable, but often contain…
This paper investigates the privacy-preserving distributed optimization problem, aiming to protect agents' private information from potential attackers during the optimization process. Gradient tracking, an advanced technique for improving…
Differential privacy (DP) is widely employed to provide privacy protection for individuals by limiting information leakage from the aggregated data. Two well-known models of DP are the central model and the local model. The former requires…
Differential Privacy (DP) is the current gold-standard for ensuring privacy for statistical queries. Estimation problems under DP constraints appearing in the literature have largely focused on providing equal privacy to all users. We…
With the increasing demands for privacy protection, many privacy-preserving machine learning systems were proposed in recent years. However, most of them cannot be put into production due to their slow training and inference speed caused by…
Privacy preservation is addressed for decentralized optimization, where $N$ agents cooperatively minimize the sum of $N$ convex functions private to these individual agents. In most existing decentralized optimization approaches,…
We consider the critical problem of distributed learning over data while keeping it private from the computational servers. The state-of-the-art approaches to this problem rely on quantizing the data into a finite field, so that the…
Differential privacy (DP) has arisen as the state-of-the-art metric for quantifying individual privacy when sensitive data are analyzed, and it is starting to see practical deployment in organizations such as the US Census Bureau, Apple,…
An increasing number of businesses are replacing their data storage and computation infrastructure with cloud services. Likewise, there is an increased emphasis on performing analytics based on multiple datasets obtained from different data…
Very recently, we are witnessing the emergence of a number of start-ups that enables individuals to sell their private data directly to brokers and businesses. While this new paradigm may shift the balance of power between individuals and…
