arXiv:2303. 04345v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Federated learning (FL) is a promising framework that models distributed machine learning while protecting the privacy of clients.
FedPS is a federated preprocessing framework that uses aggregated statistics to address missing values, inconsistent formats, and heterogeneous feature scales in structured data. It employs data-sketching techniques to summarize local datasets efficiently, enabling federated algorithms for feature scaling, encoding, discretization, and missing-value imputation. The framework also extends preprocessing-related models, such as Bayesian Linear Regression, to both horizontal and vertical federated learning settings, offering communication‑efficient and consistent pipelines for practical deployments.

Heterogeneous Differential Privacy (HDP) in Federated Learning (FL) allows clients to select individual privacy budgets ($\varepsilon_i$) according to institutional policies and data sensitivity. In practice, many HDP-FL systems employ $\varepsilon$-aware server aggregation to improve model utility by re-weighting client updates according to their declared privacy budgets.

arXiv:2606. 18773v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We study differentially private (DP) regression in settings where each data sample includes public, non-sensitive features -- common in applications such as recommendation and advertising systems.
arXiv:2608. 15107v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Federated learning (FL) is a practical framework that can train models on distributed user data while guaranteeing data privacy; however, due to heterogeneity in which each user has a different data distribution, problems frequently arise where both global and personalization performance deteriorate simultaneously.
arXiv:2608. 02480v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: With AI systems gaining more access to individuals' information, it is important to protect privacy when reporting statistical answers.
In federated averaging, local objectives can admit multiple optimal heads, making the aggregate depend on which heads clients return. We study this ambiguity in federated multivariate regression with...
