On Differentially Private Graph Sparsification and Applications

Neural Information Processing Systems

In this paper, we study private sparsification of graphs. In particular, we give an algorithm that given an input graph, returns a sparse graph which approximates the spectrum of the input graph while ensuring differential privacy. This allows one to solve many graph problems privately yet efficiently and accurately. This is exemplified with application of the proposed meta-algorithm to graph algorithms for privately answering cut-queries, as well as practical algorithms for computing MAX-CUT and SPARSEST-CUT with better accuracy than previously known. We also give an efficient private algorithm to learn Laplacian eigenmap on a graph.
