We design a new algorithm for the Euclidean $k$-means problem that operates in the local model of differential privacy. Unlike in the non-private literature, differentially private algorithms for the $k$-means objective incur both additive…

This paper studies the problem of clustering in metric spaces while preserving the privacy of individual data. Specifically, we examine differentially private variants of the k-medians and Euclidean k-means problems. We present polynomial…

Given a data set of size $n$ in $d'$-dimensional Euclidean space, the $k$-means problem asks for a set of $k$ points (called centers) so that the sum of the $\ell_2^2$-distances between points of a given data set of size $n$ and the set of…

Clustering problems (such as $k$-means and $k$-median) are fundamental unsupervised machine learning primitives, and streaming clustering algorithms have been extensively studied in the past. However, since data privacy becomes a central…

We consider the problem of clustering privately a dataset in $\mathbb{R}^d$ that undergoes both insertion and deletion of points. Specifically, we give an $\varepsilon$-differentially private clustering mechanism for the $k$-means objective…

We design new differentially private algorithms for the Euclidean k-means problem, both in the centralized model and in the local model of differential privacy. In both models, our algorithms achieve significantly improved error guarantees…

We study the task of differentially private clustering. For several basic clustering problems, including Euclidean DensestBall, 1-Cluster, k-means, and k-median, we give efficient differentially private algorithms that achieve essentially…

We study the private $k$-median and $k$-means clustering problem in $d$ dimensional Euclidean space. By leveraging tree embeddings, we give an efficient and easy to implement algorithm, that is empirically competitive with state of the art…

We study the problem of privacy-preserving $k$-means clustering in the horizontally federated setting. Existing federated approaches using secure computation suffer from substantial overheads and do not offer output privacy. At the same…

In this note, we describe a simple approach to obtain a differentially private algorithm for k-clustering with nearly the same multiplicative factor as any non-private counterpart at the cost of a large polynomial additive error. The…

Differential privacy is widely used in data analysis. State-of-the-art $k$-means clustering algorithms with differential privacy typically add an equal amount of noise to centroids for each iterative computation. In this paper, we propose a…

Clustering is a fundamental data processing task used for grouping records based on one or more features. In the vertically partitioned setting, data is distributed among entities, with each holding only a subset of those features. A key…

We consider the $k$-means clustering problem in the dynamic streaming setting, where points from a discrete Euclidean space $\{1, 2, \ldots, \Delta\}^d$ can be dynamically inserted to or deleted from the dataset. For this problem, we…

We study the problem of differentially private (DP) computation of coreset for the $k$-means objective. For a given input set of points, a coreset is another set of points such that the $k$-means objective for any candidate solution is…

We revisit the problem of finding a minimum enclosing ball with differential privacy: Given a set of $n$ points in the Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^d$ and an integer $t\leq n$, the goal is to find a ball of the smallest radius $r_{opt}$…

In today's data-driven world, the sensitivity of information has been a significant concern. With this data and additional information on the person's background, one can easily infer an individual's private data. Many differentially…

The $k$-median and $k$-means clustering objectives are classic objectives for modeling clustering in a metric space. Given a set of points in a metric space, the goal of the $k$-median (resp. $k$-means) problem is to find $k$ representative…

We study the problem of differentially private (DP) mechanisms for representing sets of size $k$ from a large universe. Our first construction creates $(\epsilon,\delta)$-DP representations with error probability of $1/(e^\epsilon + 1)$…

We consider the Euclidean $k$-means clustering problem in a dynamic setting, where we have to explicitly maintain a solution (a set of $k$ centers) $S \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$ subject to point insertions/deletions in $\mathbb{R}^d$. We…

Clustering is a fundamental unsupervised learning approach. Many clustering algorithms -- such as $k$-means -- rely on the euclidean distance as a similarity measure, which is often not the most relevant metric for high dimensional data…
