Optimal Domain-Aware Privacy Mechanisms for Synthetic Data Generation

ICML 2026poster

Differential privacy (DP) imposes fundamental trade-offs between privacy and statistical fidelity in synthetic data generation. While access to public data has been shown to improve these trade-offs empirically, existing approaches exploit public data only indirectly, through pre-processing (e.g., u…

HeavyWater and SimplexWater: Distortion-free LLM Watermarks for Low-Entropy Distributions

NeurIPS 2025poster

Large language model (LLM) watermarks enable authentication of text provenance, curb misuse of machine-generated text, and promote trust in AI systems. Current watermarks operate by changing the next-token predictions output by an LLM. The updated (i.e., watermarked) predictions depend on random si…

Multi-Group Proportional Representations for Text-to-Image Models

CVPR 2025poster

Text-to-image (T2I) generative models can create vivid, realistic images from textual descriptions. As these models proliferate, they expose new concerns about their ability to represent diverse demographic groups, propagate stereotypes, and efface minority populations. Despite growing attention to…

Multi-Group Proportional Representation in Retrieval

NeurIPS 2024poster

Image search and retrieval tasks can perpetuate harmful stereotypes, erase cultural identities, and amplify social disparities. Current approaches to mitigate these representational harms balance the number of retrieved items across population groups defined by a small number of (often binary) attri…
