Differential privacy (DP) has become an essential framework for privacy-preserving machine learning. Existing DP learning methods, however, often have disparate impacts on model predictions, e.g., for minority groups. Gradient clipping,…

The collection of individuals' data has become commonplace in many industries. Local differential privacy (LDP) offers a rigorous approach to preserving privacy whereby the individual privatises their data locally, allowing only their…

Differential Privacy (DP) is a family of definitions that bound the worst-case privacy leakage of a mechanism. One important feature of the worst-case DP guarantee is it naturally implies protections against adversaries with less prior…

We present new mechanisms for \emph{label differential privacy}, a relaxation of differentially private machine learning that only protects the privacy of the labels in the training set. Our mechanisms cluster the examples in the training…

Differential privacy is often applied with a privacy parameter that is larger than the theory suggests is ideal; various informal justifications for tolerating large privacy parameters have been proposed. In this work, we consider partial…

How to properly set the privacy parameter in differential privacy (DP) has been an open question in DP research since it was first proposed in 2006. In this work, we demonstrate the ability of influence functions to offer insight into how a…

Differential Privacy (DP) provides strong guarantees on the risk of compromising a user's data in statistical learning applications, though these strong protections make learning challenging and may be too stringent for some use cases. To…

While open Large Language Models (LLMs) have made significant progress, they still fall short of matching the performance of their closed, proprietary counterparts, making the latter attractive even for the use on highly private data.…

This paper surveys recent work in the intersection of differential privacy (DP) and fairness. It reviews the conditions under which privacy and fairness may have aligned or contrasting goals, analyzes how and why DP may exacerbate bias and…

Differentially private models seek to protect the privacy of data the model is trained on, making it an important component of model security and privacy. At the same time, data scientists and machine learning engineers seek to use…

Recent research shows that modern deep learning models achieve high predictive accuracy partly by memorizing individual training samples. Such memorization raises serious privacy concerns, motivating the widespread adoption of…

In the past decade analysis of big data has proven to be extremely valuable in many contexts. Local Differential Privacy (LDP) is a state-of-the-art approach which allows statistical computations while protecting each individual user's…

Neural networks trained on real-world data often exhibit biases while simultaneously being vulnerable to privacy attacks aimed at extracting sensitive information. Despite extensive research on each problem individually, their intersection…

Data privacy and eXplainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) are two important aspects for modern Machine Learning systems. To enhance data privacy, recent machine learning models have been designed as a Federated Learning (FL) system. On top…

Differential privacy (DP) has been applied in deep learning for preserving privacy of the underlying training sets. Existing DP practice falls into three categories - objective perturbation, gradient perturbation and output perturbation.…

Large language models (LLMs) frequently memorize sensitive or personal information, raising significant privacy concerns. Existing variants of differential privacy stochastic gradient descent (DPSGD) inject uniform noise into every gradient…

Fine-tuning has emerged as a critical process in leveraging Large Language Models (LLMs) for specific downstream tasks, enabling these models to achieve state-of-the-art performance across various domains. However, the fine-tuning process…

Recent smart grid advancements enable near-realtime reporting of electricity consumption, raising concerns about consumer privacy. Differential privacy (DP) has emerged as a viable privacy solution, where a calculated amount of noise is…

Applying differential privacy (DP) by means of the DP-SGD algorithm to protect individual data points during training is becoming increasingly popular in NLP. However, the choice of granularity at which DP is applied is often neglected. For…

Label differential privacy (DP) is a framework that protects the privacy of labels in training datasets, while the feature vectors are public. Existing approaches protect the privacy of labels by flipping them randomly, and then train a…
