Differentially Private Synthetic Data via APIs 4: Tabular Data
Toan Tran, Arturs Backurs, Zinan Lin +3
This paper investigates the problem of generating synthetic tabular data with differential privacy (DP) guarantees, enabling data sharing in sensitive domains. Despite extensive st…
Struct-Bench: A Benchmark for Differentially Private Structured Text Generation
Shuaiqi Wang, Vikas Raunak, Arturs Backurs +7
Differentially private (DP) synthetic data generation is a promising technique for utilizing private datasets that otherwise cannot be exposed for model training or other analytics…
DiscQuant: A Quantization Method for Neural Networks Inspired by Discrepancy Theory
Jerry Chee, Arturs Backurs, Rainie Heck +4
Quantizing the weights of a neural network has two steps: (1) Finding a good low bit-complexity representation for weights (which we call the quantization grid) and (2) Rounding th…
Efficiently Computing Similarities to Private Datasets
Arturs Backurs, Zinan Lin, Sepideh Mahabadi +2
Many methods in differentially private model training rely on computing the similarity between a query point (such as public or synthetic data) and private data. We abstract out th…
Differentially Private Synthetic Data via Foundation Model APIs 2: Text
Chulin Xie, Zinan Lin, Arturs Backurs +9
Text data has become extremely valuable due to the emergence of machine learning algorithms that learn from it. A lot of high-quality text data generated in the real world is priva…
Privately Aligning Language Models with Reinforcement Learning
Fan Wu, Huseyin A. Inan, Arturs Backurs +3
Positioned between pre-training and user deployment, aligning large language models (LLMs) through reinforcement learning (RL) has emerged as a prevailing strategy for training ins…
