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.

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.
