abstract

We revisit the problem of linear regression under a differential privacy constraint. By consolidating existing pieces in the literature, we clarify the correct dependence of the feature, label and coefficient domains in the optimization error and estimation error, hence revealing the delicate price of differential privacy in statistical estimation and statistical learning. Moreover, we propose simple modifications of two existing DP algorithms: (a) posterior sampling, (b) sufficient statistics perturbation, and show that they can be upgraded into **adaptive** algorithms that are able to exploit data-dependent quantities and behave nearly optimally **for every instance**. Extensive experiments are conducted on both simulated data and real data, which conclude that both AdaOPS and AdaSSP outperform the existing techniques on nearly all 36 data sets that we test on.

High-Dimensional Private Linear Regression with Optimal Rates

stat.ML · 2025-05-22 · accept · novelty 7.0

DP-GD achieves minimax optimal non-asymptotic risk O(γ + γ²/ρ²) for well-conditioned high-dimensional data and power-law scaling for ill-conditioned power-law spectra, with the exponent depending on the privacy parameter ρ.

Private Adaptive Covariance Estimation via Gaussian Graphical Models

cs.LG · 2026-05-22 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

PACE-GGM selects poorly approximated covariance entries, measures them privately, and reconstructs the full matrix with a maximum-entropy objective to produce a Gaussian graphical model, yielding lower estimation error than uniform perturbation.
