Efficient Error Prediction for Differentially Private Algorithms
Boel Nelson · 2021
Differential privacy is a strong mathematical notion of privacy. Still, a prominent challenge when using differential privacy in real data collection is understanding and counteracting the accuracy loss that differential privacy imposes. As such, the accuracy/privacy trade-off of differential privacy needs to be balanced on a case-by-case basis. Applications in the literature tend to focus solely on analytical accuracy bounds, not include data in error prediction, or use arbitrary settings to measure error empirically.
