We study the problem of multi-task learning under user-level differential privacy, in which $n$ users contribute data to $m$ tasks, each involving a subset of users. One important aspect of the problem, that can significantly impact…

Decentralized optimization is gaining increased traction due to its widespread applications in large-scale machine learning and multi-agent systems. The same mechanism that enables its success, i.e., information sharing among participating…

Computing matchings in graphs is a foundational algorithmic task. Despite extensive interest in differentially private (DP) graph analysis, work on privately computing matching solutions, rather than just their size, has been sparse. The…

Differential privacy is one of the methods to solve the problem of privacy protection in federated learning. Setting the same privacy budget for each round will result in reduced accuracy in training. The existing methods of the adjustment…

Network routing problems are common across many engineering applications. Computing optimal routing policies requires knowledge about network demand, i.e., the origin and destination (OD) of all requests in the network. However, privacy…

This study examines a resource-sharing problem involving multiple parties that agree to use a set of capacities together. We start with modeling the whole problem as a mathematical program, where all parties are required to exchange…

Differential privacy (DP), as a promising privacy-preserving model, has attracted great interest from researchers in recent years. Currently, the study on combination of machine learning and DP is vibrant. In contrast, another widely used…

Diverse planning approaches are utilised in real-world applications like risk management, automated streamed data analysis, and malware detection. The current diverse planning formulations encode the diversity model as a distance function,…

The growing development of artificial intelligence based solutions, together with privacy legislation, has driven the rise of the so-called privacy preserving machine learning architectures, such as federated learning. While federated…

We study the classical problem of community recovery in stochastic block models with a fixed number of communities, with a twist: We seek algorithms that are stable with respect to node-wise changes in the graph structure, formally defined…

Large language models (LLMs) and AI agents are increasingly integrated into enterprise systems to access internal databases and generate context-aware responses. While such integration improves productivity and decision support, the model…

We give new mechanisms for answering exponentially many queries from multiple analysts on a private database, while protecting differential privacy both for the individuals in the database and for the analysts. That is, our mechanism's…

When creating public data products out of confidential datasets, inferential/posterior-based privacy definitions, such as Pufferfish, provide compelling privacy semantics for data with correlations. However, such privacy definitions are…

We study the computational cost of differential privacy in terms of memory efficiency. While the trade-off between accuracy and differential privacy is well-understood, the inherent cost of privacy regarding memory use remains largely…

Traditional approaches to differential privacy assume a fixed privacy requirement $\epsilon$ for a computation, and attempt to maximize the accuracy of the computation subject to the privacy constraint. As differential privacy is…

We provide tools for sharing sensitive data when the data curator does not know in advance what questions an (untrusted) analyst might ask about the data. The analyst can specify a program that they want the curator to run on the dataset.…

Differential privacy and sublinear algorithms are both rapidly emerging algorithmic themes in times of big data analysis. Although recent works have shown the existence of differentially private sublinear algorithms for many problems…

We introduce derivative sensitivity, an analogue to local sensitivity for continuous functions. We use this notion in an analysis that determines the amount of noise to be added to the result of a database query in order to obtain a certain…

As a staple of data analysis and unsupervised learning, the problem of private clustering has been widely studied under various privacy models. Centralized differential privacy is the first of them, and the problem has also been studied for…

Differential privacy (DP) has become the de facto standard of privacy preservation due to its strong protection and sound mathematical foundation, which is widely adopted in different applications such as big data analysis, graph data…
