Differentially Private Timeseries Forecasts for Networked Control
We analyze a cost-minimization problem in which the controller relies on an imperfect timeseries forecast. Forecasting models generate imperfect forecasts because they use anonymization noise to protect input data privacy. However, this noise increases the control cost. We consider a scenario where the controller pays forecasting models incentives to reduce the noise and combines the forecasts into one. The controller then uses the forecast to make control decisions. Thus, forecasting models face a trade-off between accepting incentives and protecting privacy. We propose an approach to allocate economic incentives and minimize costs. We solve a biconvex optimization problem on linear quadratic regulators and compare our approach to a uniform incentive allocation scheme. The resulting solution reduces control costs by 2.5 and 2.7 times for the synthetic timeseries and the Uber demand forecast, respectively.
