Zero-determinant Strategy for Moving Target Defense: Existence, Performance, and Computation
Zhaoyang Cheng, Guanpu Chen, Yiguang Hong +2
Moving Target Defense (MTD) is commonly formulated as a repeated security game to mitigate persistent threats. Although the strong Stackelberg equilibrium (SSE) characterizes the d…
A Hierarchical Sampling Framework for bounding the Generalization Error of Federated Learning
Dario Filatrella, Ragnar Thobaben, Mikael Skoglund
We study expected generalization bounds for the Hierarchical Federated Learning (HFL) setup using Wasserstein distance. We introduce a generalized framework in which data is sample…
Sparse Point-wise Privacy Leakage: Mechanism Design and Fundamental Limits
Amirreza Zamani, Sajad Daei, Parastoo Sadeghi +1
We study an information-theoretic privacy mechanism design problem, where an agent observes useful data that is arbitrarily correlated with sensitive data , and design discl…
Privacy-Utility Trade-offs Under Multi-Level Point-Wise Leakage Constraints
Amirreza Zamani, Parastoo Sadeghi, Mikael Skoglund
An information-theoretic privacy mechanism design is studied, where an agent observes useful data which is correlated with the private data . The agent wants to reveal the i…
An Information Geometric Approach to Fairness With Equalized Odds Constraint
Amirreza Zamani, Ayfer Ãzgür, Mikael Skoglund
We study the statistical design of a fair mechanism that attains equalized odds, where an agent uses some useful data (database) to solve a task . Since both and are…
On Information Theoretic Fairness With A Bounded Point-Wise Statistical Parity Constraint: An Information Geometric Approach
Amirreza Zamani, Ayfer Ãzgür, Mikael Skoglund
In this paper, we study an information-theoretic problem of designing a fair representation under a bounded point-wise statistical (demographic) parity constraint. More specificall…
