The Fast Mixing Mechanism for Differential Privacy
Omri Lev, Moshe Shenfeld, Vishwak Srinivasan +2
Randomized sketching is a central tool for compressing large-scale optimization problems while preserving accuracy. In particular, sketches that are based on structured matrices, s…
Near-Optimal Private Linear Regression via Iterative Hessian Mixing
Omri Lev, Moshe Shenfeld, Vishwak Srinivasan +2
We study differentially private ordinary least squares (DP-OLS) with bounded data via sketching-based mechanisms. While Gaussian sketching approaches have been explored for…
The Gaussian Mixing Mechanism: Renyi Differential Privacy via Gaussian Sketches
Omri Lev, Vishwak Srinivasan, Moshe Shenfeld +3
Gaussian sketching, which consists of pre-multiplying the data with a random Gaussian matrix, is a widely used technique for multiple problems in data science and machine learning,…
The Approximate Fisher Influence Function: Faster Estimation of Data Influence in Statistical Models
Omri Lev, Ashia C. Wilson
Quantifying the influence of infinitesimal changes in training data on model performance is crucial for understanding and improving machine learning models. In this work, we reform…
