Search-augmented reasoning agents interleave internal reasoning with calls to an external retriever, and their performance relies on the quality of each issued query. However, under outcome-reward reinforcement learning, every search…

Federated learning (FL) allows clients to collaboratively train a global model without sharing their local data with a server. However, clients' contributions to the server can still leak sensitive information. Differential privacy (DP)…

Differentially private (DP) mechanisms face the challenge of providing accurate results while protecting their inputs: the privacy-utility trade-off. A simple but powerful technique for DP adds noise to sensitivity-bounded query outputs to…
