arXiv:2607. 15606v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Synthetic sequential tabular data are increasingly used for privacy-preserving data sharing, yet a generator can reproduce every marginal and every foreign-key relationship while emitting timestamps that run backwards or repeat, and while sending entities along paths that no real entity followed.

arXiv:2607. 15606v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Synthetic sequential tabular data are increasingly used for privacy-preserving data sharing and data-driven research, but evaluating their fidelity remains difficult because temporal structure is easily lost under conventional tabular metrics.

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.

The paper argues that evaluating anonymity in synthetic data generation must focus on the generative model rather than just the resulting dataset. It interprets GDPR definitions of personal data and anonymization under realistic model-access scenarios, mapping these to state‑of‑the‑art privacy attacks. The authors conclude that synthetic data alone is insufficient for anonymization, and that Differential Privacy offers stronger protection than Similarity‑based Privacy Metrics.
