Steps Adaptive Decay DPSGD: Enhancing Performance on Imbalanced Datasets with Differential Privacy with HAM10000
When applying machine learning to medical image classification, data leakage is a critical issue. Previous methods, such as adding noise to gradients for differential privacy, work well on large datasets like MNIST and CIFAR-100, but fail on small, imbalanced medical datasets like HAM10000. This is because the imbalanced distribution causes gradients from minority classes to be clipped and lose crucial information, while majority classes dominate. This leads the model to fall into suboptimal solutions early. To address this, we propose SAD-DPSGD, which uses a linear decaying mechanism for noise and clipping thresholds. By allocating more privacy budget and using higher clipping thresholds in the initial training phases, the model avoids suboptimal solutions and enhances performance. Experiments show that SAD-DPSGD outperforms Auto-DPSGD on HAM10000, improving accuracy by 2.15% under $ε= 3.0$ , $δ= 10^{-3}$.

Private GANs, Revisited
We show that the canonical approach for training differentially private GANs -- updating the discriminator with differentially private stochastic gradient descent (DPSGD) -- can yield significantly improved results after…

We revisit 1-bit gradient compression through the lens of mutual-information differential privacy (MI-DP). Building on signSGD, we propose FERRET--Fast and Effective Restricted Release for Ethical Training--which transmi…
Deep LearningBatch Clipping and Adaptive Layerwise Clipping for Differential Private Stochastic Gradient Descent
Each round in Differential Private Stochastic Gradient Descent (DPSGD) transmits a sum of clipped gradients obfuscated with Gaussian noise to a central server which uses this to update a global model which often represen…
Removing Disparate Impact of Differentially Private Stochastic Gradient Descent on Model Accuracy
When we enforce differential privacy in machine learning, the utility-privacy trade-off is different w.r.t. each group. Gradient clipping and random noise addition disproportionately affect underrepresented and complex c…
Private Learning with Public Feature Conditioning
We study differentially private (DP) regression in settings where each data sample includes public, non-sensitive features -- common in applications such as recommendation and advertising systems. While such label-DP or …
