Title: PILLAR: How to make semi-private learning more effective
Authors: Francesco Pinto, Yaxi Hu, Fanny Yang, Amartya Sanyal
Abstract summary: In Semi-Supervised Semi-Private (SP) learning, the learner has access to both public unlabelled and private labelled data. We propose a computationally efficient algorithm that achieves significantly lower private labelled sample complexity and can be efficiently run on real-world datasets.

Abstract: In Semi-Supervised Semi-Private (SP) learning, the learner has access to both public unlabelled and private labelled data. We propose a computationally efficient algorithm that, under mild assumptions on the data, provably achieves significantly lower private labelled sample complexity and can be efficiently run on real-world datasets. For this purpose, we leverage the features extracted by networks pre-trained on public (labelled or unlabelled) data, whose distribution can significantly differ from the one on which SP learning is performed. To validate its empirical effectiveness, we propose a wide variety of experiments under tight privacy constraints (\(\epsilon=0.1\)) and with a focus on low-data regimes. In all of these settings, our algorithm exhibits significantly improved performance over available baselines that use similar amounts of public data.

We present a study on 11 of the most recent semi-supervised methods, in the context of facial expression recognition (FER) Our investigation covers semi-supervised learning from in-distribution, out-of-distribution, unconstrained, and very small unlabelled data. Our results demonstrate that FixMatch consistently achieves better performance on in-distribution unlabelled data, while ReMixMatch stands out among all methods for out-of-distribution, unconstrained, and scarce unlabelled data scenarios.

Prompt-driven efficient Open-set Semi-supervised Learning [52.30303262499391]
Open-set semi-supervised learning (OSSL) has attracted growing interest, which investigates a more practical scenario where out-of-distribution (OOD) samples are only contained in unlabeled data. We propose a prompt-driven efficient OSSL framework, called OpenPrompt, which can propagate class information from labeled to unlabeled data with only a small number of trainable parameters.

How unfair is private learning ? [13.815080318918833]
We show that, when the data has a long-tailed structure, it is not possible to build accurate learning algorithms that are both private and fair. We show that relaxing overall accuracy can lead to good fairness even with strict privacy requirements.

Omni-supervised Facial Expression Recognition via Distilled Data [120.11782405714234]
We propose omni-supervised learning to exploit reliable samples in a large amount of unlabeled data for network training. We experimentally verify that the new dataset can significantly improve the ability of the learned FER model. To tackle this, we propose to apply a dataset distillation strategy to compress the created dataset into several informative class-wise images.
