Noise-Aware Shrinkage for Differentially Private Zeroth-Order Fine-Tuning of Large Language Models

arXiv:2608. 03277v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Differentially private zeroth-order optimization (DP-ZO) enables memory-efficient private fine-tuning of large language models using only forward evaluations.

Differentially Private Neural Network Training Under the Hidden State Assumption

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.
