Despite recent widespread deployment of differential privacy, relatively little is known about what users think of differential privacy. In this work, we seek to explore users' privacy expectations related to differential privacy.…

In settings like vaccination registries, individuals act after observing others, and the resulting public records can expose private information. We study privacy-preserving sequential learning, where agents add endogenous noise to their…

Two physical-layer mechanisms for achieving user-side differential privacy in communication systems are proposed. Focusing on binary phase-shift keying (BPSK) modulation, differential privacy (DP) is first studied under a deterministic…

While users claim to be concerned about privacy, often they do little to protect their privacy in their online actions. One prominent explanation for this "privacy paradox" is that when an individual shares her data, it is not just her…

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…

We consider a Bayesian persuasion or information design problem where the sender tries to persuade the receiver to take a particular action via a sequence of signals. This we model by considering multi-phase trials with different…

Differential privacy (DP) is a rigorous notion of data privacy, used for private statistics. The canonical algorithm for differentially private mean estimation is to first clip the samples to a bounded range and then add noise to their…
