arXiv:2607. 07209v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Modern federated and streaming learning systems often release intermediate models, so privacy must hold for the full trajectory under adaptive interaction.
arXiv:2606. 00426v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Federated continual learning (FCL) lets distributed clients adapt language-model heads to evolving NLP tasks without sharing raw text.
arXiv:2606. 02563v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Heterogeneous Differential Privacy (HDP) in Federated Learning (FL) allows clients to select individual privacy budgets ($\varepsilon_i$) according to institutional policies and data sensitivity.
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:2601. 14033v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Machine learning models are increasingly served behind APIs.
The paper introduces Open-1B, a language model trained under a new fully auditable regime that ensures every training operation is reproducible on heterogeneous commodity hardware with bitwise certainty. By enforcing a fixed order on sources of nondeterminism—GPU reductions, data batch ordering, and inter/intra-node communication—the authors enable auditors to replay and verify individual training steps on a single machine. The release includes the full pretraining dataset, all intermediate checkpoints, the training codebase, and an audit harness for step-by-step verification.
arXiv:2509. 10691v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Decentralized federated learning enables collaborative model training without a central server, but shared model updates can still leak sensitive information through inversion, reconstruction, and membership inference attacks.
Record-level differential privacy exposes a structural misalignment in personalized federated learning when client-specific variation is low-dimensional while training repeatedly releases high-dimensi...
arXiv:2606. 12733v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Privacy auditing provides an important safeguard by estimating the actual information leaked by a model, thus ensuring that theoretical privacy guarantees hold in practice.
The paper introduces PAC‑Private Autoregressive Generation, a method that calibrates noise based on ensemble disagreement across overlapping ‘worlds’ of a private corpus, thereby extending PAC privacy from classification to text generation. By training adapters on a frozen public model and using posterior‑weighted disagreement to add noise only when predictions vary, the approach achieves strong privacy guarantees while preserving most of the fine‑tuning benefit. Experiments on WikiText‑103 with GPT‑2‑small show 74 % of the fine‑tuning gain retained with a per‑token budget of 2⁻³², and membership‑inference success bounded to 51.08 % after one million tokens, outperforming PMixED under matched conditions.
