Optimal Fully Dynamic -Centers Clustering

MohammadHossein Bateni, Hossein Esfandiari, Rajesh Jayaram +1

We present the first algorithm for fully dynamic -centers clustering in an arbitrary metric space that maintains an optimal approximation in $O(k \cdot \operatorname{polyl…

Label differential privacy via clustering

Hossein Esfandiari, Vahab Mirrokni, Umar Syed +1

We present new mechanisms for \emph{label differential privacy}, a relaxation of differentially private machine learning that only protects the privacy of the labels in the trainin…

Tight and Robust Private Mean Estimation with Few Users

Hossein Esfandiari, Vahab Mirrokni, Shyam Narayanan

In this work, we study high-dimensional mean estimation under user-level differential privacy, and design an -differentially private mechanism using as few users a…

Feature Cross Search via Submodular Optimization

Lin Chen, Hossein Esfandiari, Gang Fu +2

In this paper, we study feature cross search as a fundamental primitive in feature engineering. The importance of feature cross search especially for the linear model has been know…
