Second-Order Convergence in Private Stochastic Non-Convex Optimization

NeurIPS 2025poster

We investigate the problem of finding second-order stationary points (SOSP) in differentially private (DP) stochastic non-convex optimization. Existing methods suffer from two key limitations: \textbf{(i)} inaccurate convergence error rate due to overlooking gradient variance in the saddle point esc…

ASM2TV: An Adaptive Semi-supervised Multi-Task Multi-View Learning Framework for Human Activity Recognition

AAAI 2022technical

Many real-world scenarios, such as human activity recognition (HAR) in IoT, can be formalized as a multi-task multi-view learning problem. Each specific task consists of multiple shared feature views collected from multiple sources, either homogeneous or heterogeneous. Common among recent approaches…

Private Stochastic Convex Optimization and Sparse Learning with Heavy-tailed Data Revisited

IJCAI 2022poster

In this paper, we revisit the problem of Differentially Private Stochastic Convex Optimization (DP-SCO) with heavy-tailed data, where the gradient of the loss function has bounded moments. Instead of the case where the loss function is Lipschitz or each coordinate of the gradient has bounded second…
