Differential Privacy Amplification in Quantum and Quantum-inspired Algorithms

Armando Angrisani · Mina Doosti · Elham Kashefi


Abstract:

Differential privacy provides a theoretical framework for processing a dataset about n users, in a way that the output reveals a minimal information about anysingle user. Such notion of privacy is usually ensured by noise-adding mechanisms and amplified by several processes, including subsampling, shuffling, iteration, mixing and diffusion. In this work, we provide privacy amplification bounds for quantum and quantum-inspired algorithms. In particular, we show for the firsttime, that algorithms running on quantum encoding of a classical dataset or the outcomes of quantum-inspired classical sampling, amplify differential privacy.Moreover, we prove that a quantum version of differential privacy is amplified by the composition of quantum channels, provided that they satisfy some mixing conditions.
