A Central Limit Theorem for Differentially Private Query Answering

Jinshuo Dong, Weijie J. Su, Linjun Zhang

Perhaps the single most important use case for differential privacy is to privately answer numerical queries, which is usually achieved by adding noise to the answer vector. The ce…

Minimax Estimation for Personalized Federated Learning: An Alternative between FedAvg and Local Training?

Shuxiao Chen, Qinqing Zheng, Qi Long +1

A widely recognized difficulty in federated learning arises from the statistical heterogeneity among clients: local datasets often originate from distinct yet not entirely unrelate…
