Differentially Private Policy Evaluation
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present the first differentially private algorithms for reinforcement learning, which apply to the task of evaluating a fixed policy. We establish two approaches for achieving differential privacy, provide a theoretical analysis of the privacy and utility of the two algorithms, and show promising results on simple empirical examples.

Evaluation of Public Servants’ Acceptability of Public-Private Partnership in Housing Delivery for Low-Income Public Servants in Akure, Nigeria
Nigeria has had several housing programmes and policies geared towards the provision of housing her citizens since colonial era to the post-colonial period. The Nigerian Government had always been directly involved in the provision of housing for the public servants and with the advent of the public-private partnership initiative, the low-income public servants’ acceptability of this new housin...
متن کاملDifferentially Private Local Electricity Markets
Privacy-preserving electricity markets have a key role in steering customers towards participation in local electricity markets by guarantying to protect their sensitive information. Moreover, these markets make it possible to statically release and share the market outputs for social good. This paper aims to design a market for local energy communities by implementing Differential Privacy (DP)...
متن کاملDifferentially private instance-based noise mechanisms in practice
Differential privacy is a widely used privacy model today, whose privacy guarantees are obtained to the price of a random perturbation of the result. In some situations, basic differentially private mechanisms may add too much noise to reach a reasonable level of privacy. To answer this shortcoming, several works have provided more technically involved mechanisms, using a new paradigm of differ...
متن کاملEvaluating and revisiting the public government: a policy feedback perspective
Existing models of quality evaluation in public sector are mainly derived from the approaches within private sector. These models which represented by the New Public Management (NPM) paradigm, don&rsquot reflect the fundamental values of public administration, which are the very essence of the discipline and contrasting it from private sector. These core values, such as democratic citizenship, ...
متن کاملDifferentially Private Identity and Closeness Testing of Discrete Distributions
We investigate the problems of identity and closeness testing over a discrete population from random samples. Our goal is to develop efficient testers while guaranteeing Differential Privacy to the individuals of the population. We describe an approach that yields sample-efficient differentially private testers for these problems. Our theoretical results show that there exist private identity a...
