Federated Learning, as a popular paradigm for collaborative training, is vulnerable against privacy attacks. Different privacy levels regarding users' attitudes need to be satisfied locally, while a strict privacy guarantee for the global model is also required centrally. Personalized Local Differential Privacy (PLDP) is suitable for preserving users' varying local privacy, yet only provides a central privacy guarantee equivalent to the worst-case local privacy level. Thus, achieving strong central privacy as well as personalized local privacy with a utility-promising model is a challenging problem. In this work, a general framework (APES) is built up to strengthen model privacy under personalized local privacy by leveraging the privacy amplification effect of the shuffle model. To tighten the privacy bound, we quantify the heterogeneous contributions to the central privacy user by user. The contributions are characterized by the ability of generating "echos" from the perturbation of each user, which is carefully measured by proposed methods Neighbor Divergence and Clip-Laplace Mechanism. Furthermore, we propose a refined framework (S-APES) with the post-sparsification technique to reduce privacy loss in high-dimension scenarios. To the best of our knowledge, the impact of shuffling on personalized local privacy is considered for the first time. We provide a strong privacy amplification effect, and the bound is tighter than the baseline result based on existing methods for uniform local privacy. Experiments demonstrate that our frameworks ensure comparable or higher accuracy for the global model.

Mobile crowd sensing (MCS) has emerged as an increasingly popular sensing paradigm due to its cost-effectiveness. This approach relies on platforms to outsource tasks to participating workers when prompted by task publishers. Although incentive mechanisms have been devised to foster widespread participation in MCS, most of them focus only on static tasks (i.e., tasks for which the timing and type are known in advance) and do not protect the privacy of worker bids. In a dynamic and resource-constrained environment, tasks are often uncertain (i.e., the platform lacks a priori knowledge about the tasks) and worker bids may be vulnerable to inference attacks. This paper presents HERALD*, an incentive mechanism that addresses these issues through the use of uncertainty and hidden bids. Theoretical analysis reveals that HERALD* satisfies a range of critical criteria, including truthfulness, individual rationality, differential privacy, low computational complexity, and low social cost. These properties are then corroborated through a series of evaluations.

When designing interventions in public health, development, and education, decision makers rely on social network data to target a small number of people, capitalizing on peer effects and social contagion to bring about the most welfare benefits to the population. Developing new methods that are privacy-preserving for network data collection and targeted interventions is critical for designing sustainable public health and development interventions on social networks. In a similar vein, social media platforms rely on network data and information from past diffusions to organize their ad campaign and improve the efficacy of targeted advertising. Ensuring that these network operations do not violate users' privacy is critical to the sustainability of social media platforms and their ad economies. We study privacy guarantees for influence maximization algorithms when the social network is unknown, and the inputs are samples of prior influence cascades that are collected at random. Building on recent results that address seeding with costly network information, our privacy-preserving algorithms introduce randomization in the collected data or the algorithm output, and can bound each node's (or group of nodes') privacy loss in deciding whether or not their data should be included in the algorithm input. We provide theoretical guarantees of the seeding performance with a limited sample size subject to differential privacy budgets in both central and local privacy regimes. Simulations on synthetic and empirical network datasets reveal the diminishing value of network information with decreasing privacy budget in both regimes.

This paper introduces FairDP, a novel mechanism designed to simultaneously ensure differential privacy (DP) and fairness. FairDP operates by independently training models for distinct individual groups, using group-specific clipping terms to assess and bound the disparate impacts of DP. Throughout the training process, the mechanism progressively integrates knowledge from group models to formulate a comprehensive model that balances privacy, utility, and fairness in downstream tasks. Extensive theoretical and empirical analyses validate the efficacy of FairDP, demonstrating improved trade-offs between model utility, privacy, and fairness compared with existing methods.

Generating differentially private (DP) synthetic data that closely resembles the original private data without leaking sensitive user information is a scalable way to mitigate privacy concerns in the current data-driven world. In contrast to current practices that train customized models for this task, we aim to generate DP Synthetic Data via APIs (DPSDA), where we treat foundation models as blackboxes and only utilize their inference APIs. Such API-based, training-free approaches are easier to deploy as exemplified by the recent surge in the number of API-based apps. These approaches can also leverage the power of large foundation models which are accessible via their inference APIs while the model weights are unreleased. However, this comes with greater challenges due to strictly more restrictive model access and the additional need to protect privacy from the API provider. In this paper, we present a new framework called Private Evolution (PE) to solve this problem and show its initial promise on synthetic images. Surprisingly, PE can match or even outperform state-of-the-art (SOTA) methods without any model training. For example, on CIFAR10 (with ImageNet as the public data), we achieve FID<=7.9 with privacy cost epsilon=0.67, significantly improving the previous SOTA from epsilon=32. We further demonstrate the promise of applying PE on large foundation models such as Stable Diffusion to tackle challenging private datasets with a small number of high-resolution images.

Federated learning provides a promising privacy-preserving way for utilizing large-scale private edge data from massive Internet-of-Things (IoT) devices. While existing research extensively studied optimizing the learning process, computing efficiency, and communication overhead, one important and often overlooked aspect is that participants contribute predictive knowledge from their data, impacting the quality of the federated models learned. While FedAvg treats each client equally and assigns weight solely based on the number of samples, the diversity of samples on each client could greatly affect the local update performance and the final aggregated model. In this paper, we propose a novel approach to address this issue by introducing a Weighted Averaging (WeiAvg) framework that emphasizes updates from high-diversity clients and diminishes the influence of those from low-diversity clients. Specifically, we introduced a projection-based approximation method to estimate the diversity of client data, instead of the computation of an entropy. We use the approximation because the locally computed entropy may not be transmitted due to excess privacy risk. Extensive experimental results show that WeiAvg converges faster and achieves higher accuracy than the original FedAvg algorithm and FedProx.

Federated learning (FL) is increasingly deployed among multiple clients to train a shared model over decentralized data. To address privacy concerns, FL systems need to safeguard the clients' data from disclosure during training and control data leakage through trained models when exposed to untrusted domains. Distributed differential privacy (DP) offers an appealing solution in this regard as it achieves a balanced tradeoff between privacy and utility without a trusted server. However, existing distributed DP mechanisms are impractical in the presence of client dropout, resulting in poor privacy guarantees or degraded training accuracy. In addition, these mechanisms suffer from severe efficiency issues. We present Hyades, a distributed differentially private FL framework that is highly efficient and resilient to client dropout. Specifically, we develop a novel 'add-then-remove' scheme that enforces a required noise level precisely in each training round, even if some sampled clients drop out. This ensures that the privacy budget is utilized prudently, despite unpredictable client dynamics. To boost performance, Hyades operates as a distributed parallel architecture via encapsulating the communication and computation operations into stages. It automatically divides the global model aggregation into several chunk-aggregation tasks and pipelines them for optimal speedup. Large-scale deployment evaluations demonstrate that Hyades efficiently handles client dropout in various realistic FL scenarios, achieving the optimal privacy-utility tradeoff and accelerating training by up to 2.4$\times$ compared to existing solutions.

Decision trees are interpretable models that are well-suited to non-linear learning problems. Much work has been done on extending decision tree learning algorithms with differential privacy, a system that guarantees the privacy of samples within the training data. However, current state-of-the-art algorithms for this purpose sacrifice much utility for a small privacy benefit. These solutions create random decision nodes that reduce decision tree accuracy or spend an excessive share of the privacy budget on labeling leaves. Moreover, many works do not support or leak information about feature values when data is continuous. We propose a new method called PrivaTree based on private histograms that chooses good splits while consuming a small privacy budget. The resulting trees provide a significantly better privacy-utility trade-off and accept mixed numerical and categorical data without leaking additional information. Finally, while it is notoriously hard to give robustness guarantees against data poisoning attacks, we prove bounds for the expected success rates of backdoor attacks against differentially-private learners. Our experimental results show that PrivaTree consistently outperforms previous works on predictive accuracy and significantly improves robustness against backdoor attacks compared to regular decision trees.

Hierarchical Clustering is a popular unsupervised machine learning method with decades of history and numerous applications. We initiate the study of differentially private approximation algorithms for hierarchical clustering under the rigorous framework introduced by (Dasgupta, 2016). We show strong lower bounds for the problem: that any $\epsilon$-DP algorithm must exhibit $O(|V|^2/ \epsilon)$-additive error for an input dataset $V$. Then, we exhibit a polynomial-time approximation algorithm with $O(|V|^{2.5}/ \epsilon)$-additive error, and an exponential-time algorithm that meets the lower bound. To overcome the lower bound, we focus on the stochastic block model, a popular model of graphs, and, with a separation assumption on the blocks, propose a private $1+o(1)$ approximation algorithm which also recovers the blocks exactly. Finally, we perform an empirical study of our algorithms and validate their performance.

As data are increasingly being stored in different silos and societies becoming more aware of data privacy issues, the traditional centralized training of artificial intelligence (AI) models is facing efficiency and privacy challenges. Recently, federated learning (FL) has emerged as an alternative solution and continue to thrive in this new reality. Existing FL protocol design has been shown to be vulnerable to adversaries within or outside of the system, compromising data privacy and system robustness. Besides training powerful global models, it is of paramount importance to design FL systems that have privacy guarantees and are resistant to different types of adversaries. In this paper, we conduct the first comprehensive survey on this topic. Through a concise introduction to the concept of FL, and a unique taxonomy covering: 1) threat models; 2) poisoning attacks and defenses against robustness; 3) inference attacks and defenses against privacy, we provide an accessible review of this important topic. We highlight the intuitions, key techniques as well as fundamental assumptions adopted by various attacks and defenses. Finally, we discuss promising future research directions towards robust and privacy-preserving federated learning.
