Distributed data analysis is a large and growing field driven by a massive proliferation of user devices, and by privacy concerns surrounding the centralised storage of data. We consider two \emph{adaptive} algorithms for estimating one…
This paper proposes a new recommendation system preserving both privacy and utility. It relies on the local differential privacy (LDP) for the browsing user to transmit his noisy preference profile, as perturbed Bloom filters, to the…
Sharing and working on sensitive data in distributed settings from healthcare to finance is a major challenge due to security and privacy concerns. Secure multiparty computation (SMC) is a viable panacea for this, allowing distributed…
Differentially private text sanitization refers to the process of privatizing texts under the framework of Differential Privacy (DP), providing provable privacy guarantees while also empirically defending against adversaries seeking to harm…
Our research delves into the balance between maintaining privacy and preserving statistical accuracy when dealing with multivariate data that is subject to \textit{componentwise local differential privacy} (CLDP). With CLDP, each component…
The growing popularity and adoption of differential privacy in academic and industrial settings has resulted in the development of increasingly sophisticated algorithms for releasing information while preserving privacy. Accompanying this…
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…
Concern about how to aggregate sensitive user data without compromising individual privacy is a major barrier to greater availability of data. The model of differential privacy has emerged as an accepted model to release sensitive…
We study locally differentially private algorithms for reinforcement learning to obtain a robust policy that performs well across distributed private environments. Our algorithm protects the information of local agents' models from being…
Differential privacy is a widely accepted formal privacy definition that allows aggregate information about a dataset to be released while controlling privacy leakage for individuals whose records appear in the data. Due to the unavoidable…
Differential privacy (DP) provides a principled approach to synthesizing data (e.g., loads) from real-world power systems while limiting the exposure of sensitive information. However, adversaries may exploit synthetic data to calibrate…
In federated learning, machine learning and deep learning models are trained globally on distributed devices. The state-of-the-art privacy-preserving technique in the context of federated learning is user-level differential privacy.…
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…
With changes in privacy laws, there is often a hard requirement for client data to remain on the device rather than being sent to the server. Therefore, most processing happens on the device, and only an altered element is sent to the…
The advent of numerous indoor location-based services (LBSs) and the widespread use of many types of mobile devices in indoor environments have resulted in generating a massive amount of people's location data. While geo-spatial data…
Longitudinal data tracking under Local Differential Privacy (LDP) is a challenging task. Baseline solutions that repeatedly invoke a protocol designed for one-time computation lead to linear decay in the privacy or utility guarantee with…
Federated learning (FL) is a new paradigm that enables many clients to jointly train a machine learning (ML) model under the orchestration of a parameter server while keeping the local data not being exposed to any third party. However, the…
Time series have numerous applications in finance, healthcare, IoT, and smart city. In many of these applications, time series typically contain personal data, so privacy infringement may occur if they are released directly to the public.…
The increasing availability of personal data has enabled significant advances in fields such as machine learning, healthcare, and cybersecurity. However, this data abundance also raises serious privacy concerns, especially in light of…
Differential Privacy (DP) is a family of definitions that bound the worst-case privacy leakage of a mechanism. One important feature of the worst-case DP guarantee is it naturally implies protections against adversaries with less prior…
