Distributed stochastic optimization enables multi-agent collaboration in applications such as distributed learning and sensor networks, but also raises critical privacy concerns due to the involvement of sensitive data. While existing…

Joint distribution estimation of a dataset under differential privacy is a fundamental problem for many privacy-focused applications, such as query answering, machine learning tasks and synthetic data generation. In this work, we examine…

Federated analytics seeks to compute accurate statistics from data distributed across users' devices while providing a suitable privacy guarantee and being practically feasible to implement and scale. In this paper, we show how a strong…

Everyday, large amounts of sensitive data is distributed across mobile phones, wearable devices, and other sensors. Traditionally, these enormous datasets have been processed on a single system, with complex models being trained to make…

Differential privacy has recently emerged as the de facto standard for private data release. This makes it possible to provide strong theoretical guarantees on the privacy and utility of released data. While it is well-known how to release…

Data fragmentation and dispersal over multiple clouds is a way of data protection against honest-but-curious storage or service providers. In this paper, we introduce a novel algorithm for data fragmentation that is particularly well…

In this paper, we study the privacy-preserving distributed optimization problem, aiming to prevent attackers from stealing the private information of agents. For this purpose, we propose a novel privacy-preserving algorithm based on the…

The vast storage capacity and computational power of cloud servers have led to the widespread outsourcing of machine learning inference services. While offering significant operational benefits, this practice also introduces privacy risks,…

Collecting and analyzing massive data generated from smart devices have become increasingly pervasive in crowdsensing, which are the building blocks for data-driven decision-making. However, extensive statistics and analysis of such data…

Originated from distributed learning, federated learning enables privacy-preserved collaboration on a new abstracted level by sharing the model parameters only. While the current research mainly focuses on optimizing learning algorithms and…

In applications like environment monitoring and pollution control, physical quantities are modeled by spatio-temporal fields. It is of interest to learn the statistical distribution of such fields as a function of space, time or both. In…

We propose an efficient scheme for generating fake network traffic to disguise the real event notification in the presence of a global eavesdropper, which is especially relevant for the quality of service in delay-intolerant applications…

In this paper, we propose a practically efficient model for securely computing rank-based statistics, e.g., median, percentiles and quartiles, over distributed datasets in the malicious setting without leaking individual data privacy. Based…

Streaming data collection is essential to real-time data analytics in various IoTs and mobile device-based systems, which, however, may expose end users' privacy. Local differential privacy (LDP) is a promising solution to…

Distributed distribution comparison aims to measure the distance between the distributions whose data are scattered across different agents in a distributed system and cannot even be shared directly among the agents. In this study, we…

Smartphone based travel data collection has become an important tool for the analysis of transportation systems. Interest in sharing travel survey data has gained popularity in recent years as "Open Data Initiatives" by governments seek to…
