Densest subgraph detection is a fundamental graph mining problem, with a large number of applications. There has been a lot of work on efficient algorithms for finding the densest subgraph in massive networks. However, in many domains, the network is private, and returning a densest subgraph can reveal information about the network. Differential privacy is a powerful framework to handle such settings. We study the densest subgraph problem in the edge privacy model, in which the edges of the graph are private. We present the first sequential and parallel differentially private algorithms for this problem. We show that our algorithms have an additive approximation guarantee. We evaluate our algorithms on a large number of real-world networks, and observe a good privacy-accuracy tradeoff when the network has high density.

Privacy-preserving machine learning algorithms are crucial for the increasingly common setting in which personal data, such as medical or financial records, are analyzed. We provide general techniques to produce privacy-preserving approximations of c lassifiers learned via (regularized) empirical risk minimization (ERM). These algorithms are private under the $epsilon$-differential privacy definition due to Dwork et al. (2006). First we apply the output perturbation ideas of Dwork et al. (2006), to ERM classification. Then we propose a new method, objective perturbation, for privacy-preserving machine learning algorithm design. This method entails perturbing the objective function before optimizing over classifiers. If the loss and regularizer satisfy certain convexity and differentiability criteria, we prove theoretical results showing that our algorithms preserve privacy, and provide generalization bounds for linear and nonlinear kernels. We further present a privacy-preserving technique for tuning the parameters in general machine learning algorithms, thereby providing end-to-end privacy guarantees for the training process. We apply these results to produce privacy-preserving analogues of regularized logistic regression and support vector machines. We obtain encouraging results from evaluating their performance on real demographic and benchmark data sets. Our results show that both theoretically and empirically, objective perturbation is superior to the previous state-of-the-art, output perturbation, in managing the inherent tradeoff between privacy and learning performance.
Ensuring the privacy of sensitive data used to train modern machine learning models is of paramount importance in many areas of practice. One approach to study these concerns is through the lens of differential privacy. In this framework, privacy gua rantees are generally obtained by perturbing models in such a way that specifics of data used to train the model are made ambiguous. A particular instance of this approach is through a teacher-student framework, wherein the teacher, who owns the sensitive data, provides the student with useful, but noisy, information, hopefully allowing the student model to perform well on a given task without access to particular features of the sensitive data. Because stronger privacy guarantees generally involve more significant perturbation on the part of the teacher, deploying existing frameworks fundamentally involves a trade-off between students performance and privacy guarantee. One of the most important techniques used in previous works involves an ensemble of teacher models, which return information to a student based on a noisy voting procedure. In this work, we propose a novel voting mechanism with smooth sensitivity, which we call Immutable Noisy ArgMax, that, under certain conditions, can bear very large random noising from the teacher without affecting the useful information transferred to the student. Compared with previous work, our approach improves over the state-of-the-art methods on all measures, and scale to larger tasks with both better performance and stronger privacy ($epsilon approx 0$). This new proposed framework can be applied with any machine learning models, and provides an appealing solution for tasks that requires training on a large amount of data.
In this paper, we study efficient differentially private alternating direction methods of multipliers (ADMM) via gradient perturbation for many machine learning problems. For smooth convex loss functions with (non)-smooth regularization, we propose t he first differentially private ADMM (DP-ADMM) algorithm with performance guarantee of $(epsilon,delta)$-differential privacy ($(epsilon,delta)$-DP). From the viewpoint of theoretical analysis, we use the Gaussian mechanism and the conversion relationship between Renyi Differential Privacy (RDP) and DP to perform a comprehensive privacy analysis for our algorithm. Then we establish a new criterion to prove the convergence of the proposed algorithms including DP-ADMM. We also give the utility analysis of our DP-ADMM. Moreover, we propose an accelerated DP-ADMM (DP-AccADMM) with the Nesterovs acceleration technique. Finally, we conduct numerical experiments on many real-world datasets to show the privacy-utility tradeoff of the two proposed algorithms, and all the comparative analysis shows that DP-AccADMM converges faster and has a better utility than DP-ADMM, when the privacy budget $epsilon$ is larger than a threshold.

This paper considers the problem of differentially private semi-supervised transfer learning. The notion of membership-mapping is developed using measure theory basis to learn data representation via a fuzzy membership function. An alternative concep tion of deep autoencoder, referred to as Conditionally Deep Membership-Mapping Autoencoder (CDMMA) (that consists of a nested compositions of membership-mappings), is considered. Under practice-oriented settings, an analytical solution for the learning of CDMFA can be derived by means of variational optimization. The paper proposes a transfer learning approach that combines CDMMA with a tailored noise adding mechanism to achieve a given level of privacy-loss bound with the minimum perturbation of the data. Numerous experiments were carried out using MNIST, USPS, Office, and Caltech256 datasets to verify the competitive robust performance of the proposed methodology.
In this work, we study the large-scale pretraining of BERT-Large with differentially private SGD (DP-SGD). We show that combined with a careful implementation, scaling up the batch size to millions (i.e., mega-batches) improves the utility of the DP- SGD step for BERT; we also enhance its efficiency by using an increasing batch size schedule. Our implementation builds on the recent work of [SVK20], who demonstrated that the overhead of a DP-SGD step is minimized with effective use of JAX [BFH+18, FJL18] primitives in conjunction with the XLA compiler [XLA17]. Our implementation achieves a masked language model accuracy of 60.5% at a batch size of 2M, for $epsilon = 5.36$. To put this number in perspective, non-private BERT models achieve an accuracy of $sim$70%.
