Data exploration systems that provide differential privacy must manage a privacy budget that measures the amount of privacy lost across multiple queries. One effective strategy to manage the privacy budget is to compute a one-time private synopsis of the data, to which users can make an unlimited number of queries. However, existing systems using synopses are built for offline use cases, where a set of queries is known ahead of time and the system carefully optimizes a synopsis for it. The synopses that these systems build are costly to compute and may also be costly to store. We introduce Overlook, a system that enables private data exploration at interactive latencies for both data analysts and data curators. The key idea in Overlook is a virtual synopsis that can be evaluated incrementally, without extra space storage or expensive precomputation. Overlook simply executes queries using an existing engine, such as a SQL DBMS, and adds noise to their results. Because Overlooks synopses do not require costly precomputation or storage, data curators can also use Overlook to explore the impact of privacy parameters interactively. Overlook offers a rich visual query interface based on the open source Hillview system. Overlook achieves accuracy comparable to existing synopsis-based systems, while offering better performance and removing the need for extra storage.

Differentially private analysis of graphs is widely used for releasing statistics from sensitive graphs while still preserving user privacy. Most existing algorithms however are in a centralized privacy model, where a trusted data curator holds the e
ntire graph. As this model raises a number of privacy and security issues -- such as, the trustworthiness of the curator and the possibility of data breaches, it is desirable to consider algorithms in a more decentralized local model where no server holds the entire graph. In this work, we consider a local model, and present algorithms for counting subgraphs -- a fundamental task for analyzing the connection patterns in a graph -- with LDP (Local Differential Privacy). For triangle counts, we present algorithms that use one and two rounds of interaction, and show that an additional round can significantly improve the utility. For $k$-star counts, we present an algorithm that achieves an order optimal estimation error in the non-interactive local model. We provide new lower-bounds on the estimation error for general graph statistics including triangle counts and $k$-star counts. Finally, we perform extensive experiments on two real datasets, and show that it is indeed possible to accurately estimate subgraph counts in the local differential privacy model.
This article describes a proposed differentially private (DP) algorithms that the US Census Bureau is considering to release the Detailed Demographic and Housing Characteristics (DHC) Race & Ethnicity tabulations as part of the 2020 Census. The tabul
ations contain statistics (counts) of demographic and housing characteristics of the entire population of the US crossed with detailed races and tribes at varying levels of geography. We describe two differentially private algorithmic strategies, one based on adding noise drawn from a two-sided Geometric distribution that satisfies pure-DP, and another based on adding noise from a Discrete Gaussian distribution that satisfied a well studied variant of differential privacy, called Zero Concentrated Differential Privacy (zCDP). We analytically estimate the privacy loss parameters ensured by the two algorithms for comparable levels of error introduced in the statistics.
In differential privacy (DP), a challenging problem is to generate synthetic datasets that efficiently capture the useful information in the private data. The synthetic dataset enables any task to be done without privacy concern and modification to e
xisting algorithms. In this paper, we present PrivSyn, the first automatic synthetic data generation method that can handle general tabular datasets (with 100 attributes and domain size $>2^{500}$). PrivSyn is composed of a new method to automatically and privately identify correlations in the data, and a novel method to generate sample data from a dense graphic model. We extensively evaluate different methods on multiple datasets to demonstrate the performance of our method.
For the modeling, design and planning of future energy transmission networks, it is vital for stakeholders to access faithful and useful power flow data, while provably maintaining the privacy of business confidentiality of service providers. This cr
itical challenge has recently been somewhat addressed in [1]. This paper significantly extends this existing work. First, we reduce the potential leakage information by proposing a fundamentally different post-processing method, using public information of grid losses rather than power dispatch, which achieve a higher level of privacy protection. Second, we protect more sensitive parameters, i.e., branch shunt susceptance in addition to series impedance (complete pi-model). This protects power flow data for the transmission high-voltage networks, using differentially private transformations that maintain the optimal power flow consistent with, and faithful to, expected model behaviour. Third, we tested our approach at a larger scale than previous work, using the PGLib-OPF test cases [10]. This resulted in the successful obfuscation of up to a 4700-bus system, which can be successfully solved with faithfulness of parameters and good utility to data analysts. Our approach addresses a more feasible and realistic scenario, and provides higher than state-of-the-art privacy guarantees, while maintaining solvability, fidelity and feasibility of the system.
We study the basic operation of set union in the global model of differential privacy. In this problem, we are given a universe $U$ of items, possibly of infinite size, and a database $D$ of users. Each user $i$ contributes a subset $W_i subseteq U$
of items. We want an ($epsilon$,$delta$)-differentially private algorithm which outputs a subset $S subset cup_i W_i$ such that the size of $S$ is as large as possible. The problem arises in countless real world applications; it is particularly ubiquitous in natural language processing (NLP) applications as vocabulary extraction. For example, discovering words, sentences, $n$-grams etc., from private text data belonging to users is an instance of the set union problem. Known algorithms for this problem proceed by collecting a subset of items from each user, taking the union of such subsets, and disclosing the items whose noisy counts fall above a certain threshold. Crucially, in the above process, the contribution of each individual user is always independent of the items held by other users, resulting in a wasteful aggregation process, where some item counts happen to be way above the threshold. We deviate from the above paradigm by allowing users to contribute their items in a $textit{dependent fashion}$, guided by a $textit{policy}$. In this new setting ensuring privacy is significantly delicate. We prove that any policy which has certain $textit{contractive}$ properties would result in a differentially private algorithm. We design two new algorithms, one using Laplace noise and other Gaussian noise, as specific instances of policies satisfying the contractive properties. Our experiments show that the new algorithms significantly outperform previously known mechanisms for the problem.
