arXiv:2603. 19703v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Estimating covariance matrices is fundamental to a wide range of statistical applications.
arXiv:2607. 29675v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Density modes provide a localized and interpretable summary of multimodal distributions, but their estimation under rigorous differential privacy constraints remains largely unexplored.
arXiv:2511. 13999v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We study the running time, in terms of first order oracle queries, of differentially private empirical/population risk minimization of Lipschitz convex losses.
arXiv:2605. 19813v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Federated differentially private protocols can communicate over many adaptive rounds and reuse each client's local samples.
arXiv:2602. 01607v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Differentially private synthetic data enables the sharing and analysis of sensitive datasets while providing rigorous privacy guarantees for individual contributors.
arXiv:2505. 14251v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We study the problem of differentially private second moment estimation and present a new algorithm that achieve strong privacy-utility trade-offs even for worst-case inputs under subsamplability assumptions on the data.
arXiv:2608. 13922v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Detecting distributional changes in high dimension is difficult when neither the pre-change nor post-change density is parametrically specified.
arXiv:2312. 14889v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: In this paper we revisit the classical method of partitioning classification and prove novel convergence rates under relaxed conditions, both for observable (non-privatised) and for privatised data.
arXiv:2604. 03146v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We study high-dimensional convex empirical risk minimization (ERM) under general non-Gaussian data designs.
arXiv:2607. 10618v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We consider the recovery of a pair of sparse vectors from a limited number of nonlinear observations of their superposition: $y_i=g(\inner{\ba_i}{\bPhi\bw^\ast+\bPsi\bz^\ast})+e_i$, $i=1,\dots,m$, with $m\ll n$, incoherent orthonormal bases $\bPhi,\bPsi$, a scalar link $g$, and noise $e_i$ that may be heavy-tailed or contaminated.
arXiv:2602. 17284v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We consider the privacy amplification properties of a sampling scheme in which a user's data isused in $k$ steps chosen randomly and uniformly from a sequence (or set) of $t$ steps.
arXiv:2606. 03559v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: For nonconvex optimization problems whose objective is the prediction function of a trained Support Vector Regression (SVR) model with the Gaussian radial basis function (RBF) kernel (RBF-SVR), we present a framework that applies the difference of convex functions (DC) algorithm (DCA) by exploiting the analytical structure of the RBF kernel to construct an explicit DC decomposition.
arXiv:2601. 10237v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Differentially Private Stochastic Gradient Descent (DP-SGD) is the dominant paradigm for private training, but its fundamental limitations under worst-case adversarial privacy definitions remain poorly understood.
