Secret-Protected Evolution for Differentially Private Synthetic Text Generation

ICLR 2026poster

Text data has become extremely valuable on large language models (LLMs) and even lead to general artificial intelligence (AGI). A lot of high-quality text in the real world is private and cannot be freely used due to privacy concerns. Therefore, differentially private (DP) synthetic text generation…

TokenShapley: Token Level Context Attribution with Shapley Value

ACL 2025finding

Large language models (LLMs) demonstrate strong capabilities in in-context learning, but verifying the correctness of their generated responses remains a challenge. Prior work has explored attribution at the sentence level, but these methods fall short when users seek attribution for specific keywor…

Efficient and Private Marginal Reconstruction with Local Non-Negativity

NeurIPS 2024poster

Differential privacy is the dominant standard for formal and quantifiable privacy and has been used in major deployments that impact millions of people. Many differentially private algorithms for query release and synthetic data contain steps that reconstruct answers to queries from answers to other…

An Optimal and Scalable Matrix Mechanism for Noisy Marginals under Convex Loss Functions

NeurIPS 2023spotlight

Noisy marginals are a common form of confidentiality-protecting data release and are useful for many downstream tasks such as contingency table analysis, construction of Bayesian networks, and even synthetic data generation. Privacy mechanisms that provide unbiased noisy answers to linear queries (s…
