• Abstract summary: Legal and ethical restrictions on accessing relevant data inhibit data science research in critical domains such as health, finance, and education. Existing approaches assume that the data holders supply their raw data to a trusted curator, who uses it as fuel for synthetic data generation. We propose the first solution in which data holders only share encrypted data for differentially private synthetic data generation.

• Abstract: Legal and ethical restrictions on accessing relevant data inhibit data science research in critical domains such as health, finance, and education. Synthetic data generation algorithms with privacy guarantees are emerging as a paradigm to break this data logjam. Existing approaches, however, assume that the data holders supply their raw data to a trusted curator, who uses it as fuel for synthetic data generation. This severely limits the applicability, as much of the valuable data in the world is locked up in silos, controlled by entities who cannot show their data to each other or a central aggregator without raising privacy concerns. To overcome this roadblock, we propose the first solution in which data holders only share encrypted data for differentially private synthetic data generation. Data holders send shares to servers who perform Secure Multiparty Computation (MPC) computations while the original data stays encrypted. We instantiate this idea in an MPC protocol for the Multiplicative Weights with Exponential Mechanism (MWEM) algorithm to generate synthetic data based on real data originating from many data holders without reliance on a single point of failure.

  Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) enhances the outputs of language models by integrating relevant information retrieved from external knowledge sources. RAG systems may face severe privacy risks when retrieving private data. We propose using synthetic data as a privacy-preserving alternative for the retrieval data.

  Federated instruction tuning (FedIT) is a promising solution, by consolidating collaborative training across multiple data owners. FedIT encounters limitations such as scarcity of instructional data and risk of exposure to training data extraction attacks. We propose FewFedPIT, designed to simultaneously enhance privacy protection and model performance of federated few-shot learning.
