Topic: The Past, Present, and Future of Differential Privacy
Speaker: Yang Cao, The Hokkaido University, Japan
Abstract:
Over the past few decades, differential privacy has received attention from academia and industry as the gold standard for privacy protection. Since its reception in 2006, differential privacy has been applied in various fields, such as data privacy-preserving data collection and sharing, database systems, and machine learning. This talk will review the origins of differential privacy, highlight state-of-the-art studies, and discuss some open problems. Specifically, I will introduce our recent studies on extending, strengthening, and evolving differential privacy in different scenarios such as key-value data, spatiotemporal data, federated learning, and personal data market.
