We study privacy in a distributed learning framework, where clients collaboratively build a learning model iteratively through interactions with a server from whom we need privacy. Motivated by stochastic optimization and the federated learning (FL) paradigm, we focus on the case where a small fraction of data samples are randomly sub-sampled in each round to participate in the learning process, which also enables privacy amplification. To obtain even stronger local privacy guarantees, we study this in the shuffle privacy model, where each client randomizes its response using a local differentially private (LDP) mechanism and the server only receives a random permutation (shuffle) of the clients responses without their association to each client. The principal result of this paper is a privacy-optimization performance trade-off for discrete randomization mechanisms in this sub-sampled shuffle privacy model. This is enabled through a new theoretical technique to analyze the Renyi Differential Privacy (RDP) of the sub-sampled shuffle model. We numerically demonstrate that, for important regimes, with composition our bound yields significant improvement in privacy guarantee over the state-of-the-art approximate Differential Privacy (DP) guarantee (with strong composition) for sub-sampled shuffled models. We also demonstrate numerically significant improvement in privacy-learning performance operating point using real data sets.

In modern settings of data analysis, we may be running our algorithms on datasets that are sensitive in nature. However, classical machine learning and statistical algorithms were not designed with these risks in mind, and it has been demonstrated th
at they may reveal personal information. These concerns disincentivize individuals from providing their data, or even worse, encouraging intentionally providing fake data. To assuage these concerns, we import the constraint of differential privacy to the statistical inference, considered by many to be the gold standard of data privacy. This thesis aims to quantify the cost of ensuring differential privacy, i.e., understanding how much additional data is required to perform data analysis with the constraint of differential privacy. Despite the maturity of the literature on differential privacy, there is still inadequate understanding in some of the most fundamental settings. In particular, we make progress in the following problems: $bullet$ What is the sample complexity of DP hypothesis testing? $bullet$ Can we privately estimate distribution properties with a negligible cost? $bullet$ What is the fundamental limit in private distribution estimation? $bullet$ How can we design algorithms to privately estimate random graphs? $bullet$ What is the trade-off between the sample complexity and the interactivity in private hypothesis selection?
How to train a machine learning model while keeping the data private and secure? We present CodedPrivateML, a fast and scalable approach to this critical problem. CodedPrivateML keeps both the data and the model information-theoretically private, whi
le allowing efficient parallelization of training across distributed workers. We characterize CodedPrivateMLs privacy threshold and prove its convergence for logistic (and linear) regression. Furthermore, via extensive experiments on Amazon EC2, we demonstrate that CodedPrivateML provides significant speedup over cryptographic approaches based on multi-party computing (MPC).
Generative adversarial network (GAN) has attracted increasing attention recently owing to its impressive ability to generate realistic samples with high privacy protection. Without directly interactive with training examples, the generative model can
be fully used to estimate the underlying distribution of an original dataset while the discriminative model can examine the quality of the generated samples by comparing the label values with the training examples. However, when GANs are applied on sensitive or private training examples, such as medical or financial records, it is still probable to divulge individuals sensitive and private information. To mitigate this information leakage and construct a private GAN, in this work we propose a Renyi-differentially private-GAN (RDP-GAN), which achieves differential privacy (DP) in a GAN by carefully adding random noises on the value of the loss function during training. Moreover, we derive the analytical results of the total privacy loss under the subsampling method and cumulated iterations, which show its effectiveness on the privacy budget allocation. In addition, in order to mitigate the negative impact brought by the injecting noise, we enhance the proposed algorithm by adding an adaptive noise tuning step, which will change the volume of added noise according to the testing accuracy. Through extensive experimental results, we verify that the proposed algorithm can achieve a better privacy level while producing high-quality samples compared with a benchmark DP-GAN scheme based on noise perturbation on training gradients.
We consider the critical problem of distributed learning over data while keeping it private from the computational servers. The state-of-the-art approaches to this problem rely on quantizing the data into a finite field, so that the cryptographic app
roaches for secure multiparty computing can then be employed. These approaches, however, can result in substantial accuracy losses due to fixed-point representation of the data and computation overflows. To address these critical issues, we propose a novel algorithm to solve the problem when data is in the analog domain, e.g., the field of real/complex numbers. We characterize the privacy of the data from both information-theoretic and cryptographic perspectives, while establishing a connection between the two notions in the analog domain. More specifically, the well-known connection between the distinguishing security (DS) and the mutual information security (MIS) metrics is extended from the discrete domain to the continues domain. This is then utilized to bound the amount of information about the data leaked to the servers in our protocol, in terms of the DS metric, using well-known results on the capacity of single-input multiple-output (SIMO) channel with correlated noise. It is shown how the proposed framework can be adopted to do computation tasks when data is represented using floating-point numbers. We then show that this leads to a fundamental trade-off between the privacy level of data and accuracy of the result. As an application, we also show how to train a machine learning model while keeping the data as well as the trained model private. Then numerical results are shown for experiments on the MNIST dataset. Furthermore, experimental advantages are shown comparing to fixed-point implementations over finite fields.
Federated Learning (FL) is a promising machine learning paradigm that enables the analyzer to train a model without collecting users raw data. To ensure users privacy, differentially private federated learning has been intensively studied. The existi
ng works are mainly based on the textit{curator model} or textit{local model} of differential privacy. However, both of them have pros and cons. The curator model allows greater accuracy but requires a trusted analyzer. In the local model where users randomize local data before sending them to the analyzer, a trusted analyzer is not required but the accuracy is limited. In this work, by leveraging the textit{privacy amplification} effect in the recently proposed shuffle model of differential privacy, we achieve the best of two worlds, i.e., accuracy in the curator model and strong privacy without relying on any trusted party. We first propose an FL framework in the shuffle model and a simple protocol (SS-Simple) extended from existing work. We find that SS-Simple only provides an insufficient privacy amplification effect in FL since the dimension of the model parameter is quite large. To solve this challenge, we propose an enhanced protocol (SS-Double) to increase the privacy amplification effect by subsampling. Furthermore, for boosting the utility when the model size is greater than the user population, we propose an advanced protocol (SS-Topk) with gradient sparsification techniques. We also provide theoretical analysis and numerical evaluations of the privacy amplification of the proposed protocols. Experiments on real-world dataset validate that SS-Topk improves the testing accuracy by 60.7% than the local model based FL.
