Researchers have developed MammothDP, a novel machine learning system designed to protect sensitive data within trusted execution environments (TEEs). This system is based on the S-BDT gradient boosted decision tree learner and offers provable differential privacy (DP) when used with a privacy filter and timing side-channel hardening. MammothDP introduces an adaptive early stopping criterion for selecting the number of trees without privacy overhead and an improved rollback protection mechanism that is resilient to timing side-channel attacks, aiming for a strong privacy-utility tradeoff.
