Frequency estimation plays a critical role in many applications involving personal and private categorical data. Such data are often collected sequentially over time, making it valuable to estimate their distribution online while preserving…

Based on binary inquiries, we developed an algorithm to estimate population quantiles under Local Differential Privacy (LDP). By self-normalizing, our algorithm provides asymptotically normal estimation with valid inference, resulting in…

Frequency estimation, a.k.a. histograms, is a workhorse of data analysis, and as such has been thoroughly studied under differentially privacy. In particular, computing histograms in the \emph{local} model of privacy has been the focus of a…

The randomized power method has gained significant interest due to its simplicity and efficient handling of large-scale spectral analysis and recommendation tasks. However, its application to large datasets containing personal information…

The emergence and evolution of Local Differential Privacy (LDP) and its various adaptations play a pivotal role in tackling privacy issues related to the vast amounts of data generated by intelligent devices, which are crucial for…

Local differential privacy (LDP) has been deemed as the de facto measure for privacy-preserving distributed data collection and analysis. Recently, researchers have extended LDP to the basic data type in NoSQL systems: the key-value data,…

Distributed data analysis is a large and growing field driven by a massive proliferation of user devices, and by privacy concerns surrounding the centralised storage of data. We consider two \emph{adaptive} algorithms for estimating one…

Poisson subsampling is the default sampling scheme in differentially private machine learning, largely because its unstructured randomness yields tractable privacy amplification analyses. Yet this same randomness introduces substantial…

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…

Federated data analytics is a framework for distributed data analysis where a server compiles noisy responses from a group of distributed low-bandwidth user devices to estimate aggregate statistics. Two major challenges in this framework…

Centralized differential privacy has been successfully applied to quantum computing and information processing to protect privacy and avoid leaks in the connections between neighboring quantum states. Consequently, quantum local…

We study distributed estimation and learning problems in a networked environment where agents exchange information to estimate unknown statistical properties of random variables from their privately observed samples. The agents can…

This paper proposes a locally differentially private federated learning algorithm for strongly convex but possibly nonsmooth problems that protects the gradients of each worker against an honest but curious server. The proposed algorithm…

This paper studies the distributed least-squares optimization problem with differential privacy requirement of local cost functions, for which two differentially private distributed solvers are proposed. The first is established on the…

We provide a detailed study of the estimation of probability distributions---discrete and continuous---in a stringent setting in which data is kept private even from the statistician. We give sharp minimax rates of convergence for…

Privacy issues and communication cost are both major concerns in distributed optimization. There is often a trade-off between them because the encryption methods required for privacy-preservation often incur expensive communication…

With changes in privacy laws, there is often a hard requirement for client data to remain on the device rather than being sent to the server. Therefore, most processing happens on the device, and only an altered element is sent to the…

Local Differential Privacy (LDP) protocols enable the collection of randomized client messages for data analysis, without the necessity of a trusted data curator. Such protocols have been successfully deployed in real-world scenarios by…

The introduction and advancements in Local Differential Privacy (LDP) variants have become a cornerstone in addressing the privacy concerns associated with the vast data produced by smart devices, which forms the foundation for data-driven…

We address differential privacy for fully distributed optimization subject to a shared inequality constraint. By co-designing the distributed optimization mechanism and the differential-privacy noise injection mechanism, we propose the…
