New research explores privacy limits in sparse linear models

This paper investigates the limitations of sparse linear regression models when employing shuffled differential privacy (SDP). Researchers established a lower bound for non-interactive SDP protocols, indicating an inherent dimensionality barrier. They also proposed a non-interactive algorithm that approaches this bound. For interactive user-level settings, a two-round algorithm was developed that recovers the support and estimates parameters with improved accuracy, showing near-optimality against a new lower bound for user-level differential privacy.

    On the Limits of Sparse Linear Model with Shuffled Differential Privacy

    arXiv:2610.32822v2 Announce Type: new Abstract: Sparse linear regression is a fundamental problem in high-dimensional statistics, and its private counterparts leave a large gap between the central and the local model of differential privacy. Shuffled differential privacy (SDP) si…
