New method uses linear aggregation for label differential privacy

Researchers have introduced a novel method for achieving label differential privacy (label-DP) through linear aggregation of training instances. This technique, detailed in a recent arXiv paper, utilizes i.i.d. N(0, 1) weights to protect sensitive training labels while preserving utility for regression tasks. The proposed approach offers improved practical bounds compared to prior methods by focusing on minimum linear regression loss rather than the data matrix's minimum singular value. The paper also extends these privacy guarantees to scenarios involving sub-sampled disjoint bags of instances and Lipschitz-bounded neural regression tasks. AI
