Distributed median consensus has emerged as a critical paradigm in multi-agent systems due to the inherent robustness of the median against outliers and anomalies in measurement. Despite the sensitivity of the data involved, the development…

Nowadays, crowd sensing becomes increasingly more popular due to the ubiquitous usage of mobile devices. However, the quality of such human-generated sensory data varies significantly among different users. To better utilize sensory data,…

In this work, we focus on solving a decentralized consensus problem in a private manner. Specifically, we consider a setting in which a group of nodes, connected through a network, aim at computing the mean of their local values without…

Releasing full data records is one of the most challenging problems in data privacy. On the one hand, many of the popular techniques such as data de-identification are problematic because of their dependence on the background knowledge of…

We define discounted differential privacy, as an alternative to (conventional) differential privacy, to investigate privacy of evolving datasets, containing time series over an unbounded horizon. We use privacy loss as a measure of the…

This paper studies the problem of multi-agent computation under the differential privacy requirement of the agents' local datasets against eavesdroppers having node-to-node communications. We first propose for the network equipped with…

We propose a relaxed privacy definition called {\em random differential privacy} (RDP). Differential privacy requires that adding any new observation to a database will have small effect on the output of the data-release procedure. Random…

Many machine learning applications are based on data collected from people, such as their tastes and behaviour as well as biological traits and genetic data. Regardless of how important the application might be, one has to make sure…

We introduce the problem of releasing sensitive data under differential privacy when the privacy level is subject to change over time. Existing work assumes that privacy level is determined by the system designer as a fixed value before…

While the introduction of differential privacy has been a major breakthrough in the study of privacy preserving data publication, some recent work has pointed out a number of cases where it is not possible to limit inference about…

Many intended uses of differential privacy involve a $\textit{continual mechanism}$ that is set up to run continuously over a long period of time, making more statistical releases as either queries come in or the dataset is updated. In this…

In this paper, we present a notion of differential privacy (DP) for data that comes from different classes. Here, the class-membership is private information that needs to be protected. The proposed method is an output perturbation…

In this paper, we consider the privacy preservation problem in both discrete- and continuous-time average consensus algorithms with strongly connected and balanced graphs, against either internal honest-but-curious agents or external…

Differential privacy is a popular privacy-enhancing technology that has been deployed both in industry and government agencies. Unfortunately, existing explanations of differential privacy fail to set accurate privacy expectations for data…

Differentially private distributed stochastic optimization has become a hot topic due to the urgent need of privacy protection in distributed stochastic optimization. In this paper, two-time scale stochastic approximation-type algorithms…

Differential Privacy (DP) is a well-established framework to quantify privacy loss incurred by any algorithm. Traditional DP formulations impose a uniform privacy requirement for all users, which is often inconsistent with real-world…

Data collected about individuals is regularly used to make decisions that impact those same individuals. We consider settings where sensitive personal data is used to decide who will receive resources or benefits. While it is well known…

In recent years, machine learning techniques utilizing large-scale datasets have achieved remarkable performance. Differential privacy, by means of adding noise, provides strong privacy guarantees for such learning algorithms. The cost of…

An algorithm is developed to gradually relax the Differential Privacy (DP) guarantee of a randomized response. The output from each relaxation maintains the same probability distribution as a standard randomized response with the equivalent…

Privacy-preserving state estimation for linear time-invariant dynamical systems with crowd sensors is considered. At any time step, the estimator has access to measurements from a randomly selected sensor from a pool of sensors with…
