arXiv:2407. 08233v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Current differentially private learning paradigms face a severe utility bottleneck: DP-SGD degrades performance through noise accumulation over training steps, while aggregation-based approaches such as PATE suffer from data inefficiency due to disjoint data partitioning.

The paper extends the abstract gradient training (AGT) framework to provide tighter differential privacy guarantees for both private prediction and private learning. It introduces Abstract Gradient Sampling (AGS) to analyze privacy in continuous, unbounded regression and offers theoretical and empirical evidence that these methods yield tighter bounds than global-sensitivity baselines, even in previously unbounded settings. The authors also demonstrate that their private learning algorithm can outperform standard private learners under comparable conditions.

The paper introduces a federated inference framework that enables multiple commercial large language model (LLM) APIs—such as LLaMA‑3.3‑70B, GPT‑4o‑mini, and Claude‑3‑Haiku—to collaborate on cognitive diagnosis tasks without accessing raw student data or proprietary model internals. Each entity’s predictions are perturbed with Laplace noise to provide epsilon‑local differential privacy, and a residual‑based aggregation scheme mitigates model heterogeneity. Experiments on three educational benchmarks demonstrate strong privacy guarantees with minimal accuracy loss, confirming the framework’s practical usability and cross‑domain generalizability.

SpliTEE extends the split‑inference architecture of Slalom to large language models by protecting intermediate GPU computations with differential privacy rather than encryption. The authors show that masking intermediate representations is essential, as a prompt‑reconstruction attack can recover prompts with about 80% accuracy. Their global sensitivity analysis bounds the noise needed, and they demonstrate that SpliTEE on Intel TDX achieves near‑double the speed of fully CPU‑based inference and outperforms encryption‑based Slalom while maintaining higher accuracy.
