New research advances differential privacy in machine learning

Researchers have developed new methods to enhance differential privacy in machine learning, particularly for decentralized and causal structure learning. One approach, DPDL, uses a similarity-based calibration technique with Gaussian noise to protect privacy in decentralized learning on non-IID data, achieving linear speedup. Another method leverages fully homomorphic encryption (FHE) to enable calculations on encrypted data for causal structure learning, employing circuit simplification and approximations to manage FHE's computational cost. Additionally, a new DP sketching mechanism based on fast transforms offers improved runtime for DP linear regression, and a local differential privacy model with correlated noise demonstrates that optimal centralized privacy costs can be achieved without sacrificing utility. AI
