Differential privacy (DP) is a widely-accepted and widely-applied notion of privacy based on worst-case analysis. Often, DP classifies most mechanisms without additive noise as non-private (Dwork et al., 2014). Thus, additive noises are…

Differential Privacy (DP) is a rigorous privacy standard widely adopted in data analysis and machine learning. However, its guarantees rely on correctly introducing randomized noise--an assumption that may not hold if the implementation is…

Differential Privacy (DP) considers a scenario in which an adversary has almost complete information about the entries of a database. This worst-case assumption is likely to overestimate the privacy threat faced by an individual in…
