In this paper, we investigate the problem of differentially private distributed optimization. Recognizing that lower sensitivity leads to higher accuracy, we analyze the key factors influencing the sensitivity of differentially private…
Differential privacy (DP) provides rigorous privacy guarantees on individual's data while also allowing for accurate statistics to be conducted on the overall, sensitive dataset. To design a private system, first private algorithms must be…
We design differentially private algorithms for the problem of online linear optimization in the full information and bandit settings with optimal $\tilde{O}(\sqrt{T})$ regret bounds. In the full-information setting, our results demonstrate…
The first large-scale deployment of private federated learning uses differentially private counting in the continual release model as a subroutine (Google AI blog titled "Federated Learning with Formal Differential Privacy Guarantees"). In…
Releasing all pairwise shortest path (APSP) distances between vertices on general graphs under weight Differential Privacy (DP) is known as a challenging task. In the previous attempt of (Sealfon 2016}, by adding Laplace noise to each edge…
We consider the problem of counting 4-cycles ($C_4$) in an undirected graph $G$ of $n$ vertices and $m$ edges (in bipartite graphs, 4-cycles are also often referred to as $\textit{butterflies}$). Most recently, Wang et al. (2019, 2022)…
We present new algorithms for estimating and testing \emph{collision probability}, a fundamental measure of the spread of a discrete distribution that is widely used in many scientific fields. We describe an algorithm that satisfies…
We study the decentralized online regularized linear regression algorithm over random time-varying graphs. At each time step, every node runs an online estimation algorithm consisting of an innovation term processing its own new…
Given a set of $n$ points $S$ in the plane, a triangulation $T$ of $S$ is a maximal set of non-crossing segments with endpoints in $S$. We present an algorithm that computes the number of triangulations on a given set of $n$ points in time…
Networked system often relies on distributed algorithms to achieve a global computation goal with iterative local information exchanges between neighbor nodes. To preserve data privacy, a node may add a random noise to its original data for…
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…
This paper presents a quantum algorithm for triangle finding over sparse graphs that improves over the previous best quantum algorithm for this task by Buhrman et al. [SIAM Journal on Computing, 2005]. Our algorithm is based on the recent…
In this paper, we present two new algorithms for covariance estimation under concentrated differential privacy (zCDP). The first algorithm achieves a Frobenius error of $\tilde{O}(d^{1/4}\sqrt{\mathrm{tr}}/\sqrt{n} + \sqrt{d}/n)$, where…
There are distributed graph algorithms for finding maximal matchings and maximal independent sets in $O(\Delta + \log^* n)$ communication rounds; here $n$ is the number of nodes and $\Delta$ is the maximum degree. The lower bound by Linial…
We present two on-line algorithms for maintaining a topological order of a directed $n$-vertex acyclic graph as arcs are added, and detecting a cycle when one is created. Our first algorithm handles $m$ arc additions in $O(m^{3/2})$ time.…
Most current distributed processing research deals with improving the flexibility and convergence speed of algorithms for networks of finite size with no constraints on information sharing and no concept for expected levels of signal…
This paper proposes a differentially private gradient-tracking-based distributed stochastic optimization algorithm over directed graphs. In particular, privacy noises are incorporated into each agent's state and tracking variable to…
How efficiently can we find an unknown graph using distance queries between its vertices? We assume that the unknown graph is connected, unweighted, and has bounded degree. The goal is to find every edge in the graph. This problem admits a…
In this work we consider the problem of online submodular maximization under a cardinality constraint with differential privacy (DP). A stream of $T$ submodular functions over a common finite ground set $U$ arrives online, and at each…
Let ${\mathcal C}$ be a proper minor-closed family of graphs. We present a randomized algorithm that given a graph $G \in {\mathcal C}$ with $n$ vertices, finds a simple cycle of size $k$ in $G$ (if exists) in $2^{O(k)}n$ time. The…
