Revisiting Differentially Private ReLU Regression

Neural Information Processing Systems

As one of the most fundamental non-convex learning problems, ReLU regression under differential privacy (DP) constraints, especially in high-dimensional settings, remains a challenging area in privacy-preserving machine learning. Existing results are limited to the assumptions of bounded norm \ \mathbf{x}\ _2 \leq 1, which becomes meaningless with increasing data dimensionality. In this work, we revisit the problem of DP ReLU regression in high-dimensional regimes. We propose two innovative algorithms DP-GLMtron and DP-TAGLMtron that outperform the conventional DPSGD. DP-GLMtron is based on a generalized linear model perceptron approach, integrating adaptive clipping and Gaussian mechanism for enhanced privacy.
