Private Learning with Public Features

Walid Krichene, Nicolas Mayoraz, Steffen Rendle +3

We study a class of private learning problems in which the data is a join of private and public features. This is often the case in private personalization tasks such as recommenda…

Answering Compositional Queries with Set-Theoretic Embeddings

Shib Dasgupta, Andrew McCallum, Steffen Rendle +1

The need to compactly and robustly represent item-attribute relations arises in many important tasks, such as faceted browsing and recommendation systems. A popular machine learnin…

ALX: Large Scale Matrix Factorization on TPUs

Harsh Mehta, Steffen Rendle, Walid Krichene +1

We present ALX, an open-source library for distributed matrix factorization using Alternating Least Squares, written in JAX. Our design allows for efficient use of the TPU architec…

Private Alternating Least Squares: Practical Private Matrix Completion with Tighter Rates

Steve Chien, Prateek Jain, Walid Krichene +4

We study the problem of differentially private (DP) matrix completion under user-level privacy. We design a joint differentially private variant of the popular Alternating-Least-Sq…
