Privacy Amplification by Mixing and Diffusion Mechanisms

NeurIPS 2019poster

A fundamental result in differential privacy states that the privacy guarantees of a mechanism are preserved by any post-processing of its output. In this paper we investigate under what conditions stochastic post-processing can amplify the privacy of a mechanism. By interpreting post-processing as…

Renyi Differential Privacy Mechanisms for Posterior Sampling

NeurIPS 2017poster

With the newly proposed privacy definition of Rényi Differential Privacy (RDP) in (Mironov, 2017), we re-examine the inherent privacy of releasing a single sample from a posterior distribution. We exploit the impact of the prior distribution in mitigating the influence of individual data points. In…
