New method enhances differentially private linear regression using public data

Researchers have developed a new method to improve the accuracy and robustness of differentially private linear regression. This approach leverages information from public data by transforming private data using a public second-moment matrix. The resulting transformed estimator shows improved accuracy and robustness compared to standard methods, as demonstrated through theoretical error bounds and experiments on synthetic and real-world datasets.

    Enhancing Differentially Private Linear Regression via Public Second-Moment

    arXiv:2508.18037v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Leveraging information from public data has become increasingly crucial in enhancing the utility of differentially private (DP) methods. Traditional DP approaches often require adding noise based solely on private data, wh…
