Another Best paper award for Assistant Prof. Shay Moran and his colleagues, Assistant Prof. Mark Bun and Dr. Roi Livni, at the IEEE Annual Symposium on Foundations of Computer Science (FOCS), which together with its annual counterpart STOC are considered the two top conferences in theoretical computer science.
Their work provides a mathematical characterization of machine learning tasks that can be learned under “privacy constraints”: in recent years artificial intelligence algorithms have been applied in contexts in which their training data includes personal and sensitive information. For a relevant recent example consider the ways in which such technology has been used to promote political agendas over social networks. (There are other examples in fields such as medicine, banking, admissions to schools/universities, and others). Consequently, there has been an extensive line of research towards understanding which tasks can be learned while protecting sensitive data and how. The main contribution of this work is a conceptual-theoretical equivalence with a classic area in machine learning called online learning. The technical derivations in this work are based on a combinatorial perspective of machine learning. For the full article, go to arxiv.org/pdf/2003.00563.pdf ... See MoreSee Less
