Privacy Amplification in Differentially Private Zeroth-Order Optimization with Hidden States
Eli Chien, Wei-Ning Chen, Pan Li
Zeroth-order optimization has emerged as a promising approach for fine-tuning large language models under differential privacy (DP) and memory constraints. While privacy amplificat…
Privately Learning from Graphs with Applications in Fine-tuning Large Language Models
Haoteng Yin, Rongzhe Wei, Eli Chien +1
Graphs offer unique insights into relationships between entities, complementing data modalities like text and images and enabling AI models to extend their capabilities beyond trad…
Convergent Privacy Loss of Noisy-SGD without Convexity and Smoothness
Eli Chien, Pan Li
We study the Differential Privacy (DP) guarantee of hidden-state Noisy-SGD algorithms over a bounded domain. Standard privacy analysis for Noisy-SGD assumes all internal states are…
Differentially Private Graph Diffusion with Applications in Personalized PageRanks
Rongzhe Wei, Eli Chien, Pan Li
Graph diffusion, which iteratively propagates real-valued substances among the graph, is used in numerous graph/network-involved applications. However, releasing diffusion vectors…
