Efficient Unlearning with Privacy Guarantees

arXiv:2507. 04771v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Privacy protection laws, such as the GDPR, grant individuals the right to request the forgetting of their personal data not only from databases but also from machine learning (ML) models trained on them.

Pointing the Way, Hiding the Destination: Practical Private Dense Retrieval at Scale

The paper presents a practical private dense retrieval system that uses learned deep hashing as a private filter to generate a short candidate list for each query. Encrypted reranking and oblivious key transfer protect the exact query and final selection, allowing the system to match full‑corpus retrieval quality with only 200‑500 candidates. Experiments on five zero‑shot corpora and the 2.68M‑passage NQ corpus show minimal latency overhead and strong privacy guarantees.

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.
