Abstract (arXiv)

To the best of our knowledge, there are no methods today for training differentially private regression models on sparse input data. To remedy this, we adapt the Frank-Wolfe algorithm for L1 penalized linear regression to be aware of sparse inputs and to use them effectively. In doing so, we reduce the training time of the algorithm from O( T D S + T N S) to O(N S + T √D logD + T S2), where T is the number of iterations and a sparsity rate S of a dataset with N rows and D features. Our results demonstrate that this procedure can reduce runtime by a factor of up to 2,200×, depending on the value of the privacy parameter ε and the sparsity of the dataset.
