DP-Hype: Federated Differentially Private Hyperparameter Search
arXiv:2510. 04902v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Tuning hyperparameters in federated machine learning can substantially impact model performance.
Theoretically Principled Federated Learning for Balancing Privacy and Utility
The paper introduces a general learning framework that protects privacy in federated learning by distorting model parameters, enabling a trade‑off between privacy and utility. The algorithm supports arbitrary privacy measurements and delivers personalized utility‑privacy balances for each parameter, client, and communication round. The authors prove that the gap between their algorithm’s utility loss and the optimal loss is sub‑linear in iterations, provide a convergence rate, and demonstrate empirically that their method outperforms baselines under the same privacy budget.

IntraShuffler: A Privacy Preserving Framework for Heterogeneous DP Federated Learning
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.
