SEMINARS IN STATISTICS @ COLLEGIO CARLO ALBERTO
<https://www.carloalberto.org/events/category/seminars/seminars-in-statistic…>
Venerdi 20 Gennaio 2023, alle ore 12.00, presso il Collegio Carlo Alberto,
in Piazza Arbarello 8, Torino, si terrà il seguente seminario:
------------------------------------------------
Speaker: *Angelika Rohde* (University of Freiburg)
Title: *Estimating functionals under local differential privacy*
Abstract:
We study the problem of estimating a functional $\theta(\mathbb{P})$ of an
unknown probability distribution $\mathbb{P} \in\mathcal{P}$ in which the
original iid sample $X_1,\dots, X_n$ is kept private even from the
statistician via an $\alpha$-local differential privacy constraint. Let
$\omega_{TV}$ denote the modulus of continuity of the functional $\theta$
over $\mathcal{P}$ with respect to total variation distance. For a large
class of loss functions $l$ and a fixed privacy level $\alpha$, we prove
that the privatized minimax risk is equivalent to
$l(\omega_{TV}(n^{-1/2}))$ to within constants, under regularity conditions
that are satisfied, in particular, if $\theta$ is linear and $\mathcal{P}$
is convex. Our results complement the theory developed by Donoho and Liu
(1991 Ann. Statist. 19 633–667) with the nowadays highly relevant case of
privatized data. Somewhat surprisingly, the difficulty of the estimation
problem in the private case is characterized by $\omega_{TV}$, whereas, it
is characterized by the Hellinger modulus of continuity if the original
data $X_1,\dots, X_n$ are available. We also find that for locally private
estimation of linear functionals over a convex model a simple sample mean
estimator, based on independently and binary privatized observations,
always achieves the minimax rate. In particular, over the larger class of
so-called sequentially interactive privacy mechanisms, a non-interactive
procedure attains this rate.
Next, we turn to one of the most studied non-linear functionals, the
quadratic functional. Here, in contrast, we show that for estimating the
integrated square of a density, sequentially interactive privacy mechanisms
improve substantially over the best possible non-interactive procedure in
terms of minimax rate of estimation. In particular, in the non-interactive
scenario we identify an elbow in the minimax rate at $s=3/4$, whereas in
the sequentially interactive scenario the elbow is at $s=1/2$. This is
markedly different from both, the case of direct observations, where the
elbow is well-known to be at $s=1/4$, as well as from the case where
Laplace noise is added to the original data, where an elbow at $s=9/4$ is
obtained.

Summer school: Deterministic and random features of fluids
Date: Monday, Jul 3, 2023 -- Friday, Jul 7, 2023
Place: EPFL, Lausanne, Switzerland
The summer school focuses on the deterministic and random phenomenologies
of incompressible fluids. The format consists of two lecture series (6
hours each) by Prof. Jacob Bedrossian and Prof. Thierry Gallay and of
several research talks by experts in the field. The lectures address two
main themes: chaotic properties of fluid models in the presence of an
external random force and stability at high Reynolds number of vortex
configurations. The school is intended to introduce early stage researchers
(Ph.D. and postdocs) to these subjects. Support for selected young
participants will be available.

TITOLO
Polarization and Coherence in Mean Field Games Driven by Private and
Social Utility
Abstract
We study a mean field game in continuous time over a finite horizon,
T, where the state of each agent is binary and where players base
their strategic decisions on two, possibly competing, factors: the
willingness to align with the majority (conformism) and the aspiration
of sticking with the own type (stubbornness). We also consider a
quadratic cost related to the rate at which a change in the state
happens: changing opinion may be a costly operation. Depending on the
parameters of the model, the game may have more than one Nash
equilibrium, even though the corresponding N- player game does not.
Moreover, it exhibits a very rich phase diagram, where
polarized/unpolarized, coherent/incoherent equilibria may coexist,
except for T small, where the equilibrium is always unique. We fully
describe such phase diagram in closed form and provide a detailed
numerical analysis of the N-player counterpart of the mean field game.
Joint work with Marco Tolotti (Venezia) and Elena Sartori (Padova).
