Structural Differential Privacy In Graph Neural Networks, Bibek Giri Jul 2025

Structural Differential Privacy In Graph Neural Networks, Bibek Giri

Master’s Dissertations

Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have demonstrated impressive performance across a range of graph-based learning tasks. However, their application to domains with sensitive relational data raises serious privacy concerns, as the graph structure itself may leak confidential information. This thesis investigates a decentralized framework for enforcing edge-level local di!erential privacy (LDP) in graph-structured data. We introduce two mechanisms that perturb a node’s neighborhood in a privacy-preserving yet utility-aware manner. The first approach replaces randomly selected neighbors with feature-similar nodes from the 2-hop neighborhood, ensuring structural realism while preserving degree. The second approach eliminates the need for explicit 2-hop propagation and dummy …

Dynamic Sparsification In Secure Gradient Aggregation For Federated Learning, Bikash Samanta Jul 2025

Dynamic Sparsification In Secure Gradient Aggregation For Federated Learning, Bikash Samanta

Master’s Dissertations

Secure aggregation is a critical component of privacy-preserving federated learning. However, existing fixed-sparsity approaches often incur unnecessary communication overhead. We present DynamicSecAgg, a novel framework that introduces dynamic sparsity while preserving coordinate-level privacy. Our method achieves significant improvements in communication efficiency while maintaining — and in some cases improving — model accuracy across both IID and non-IID user distributions. The framework maintains information-theoretic privacy guarantees via adaptive gradient thresholding and polynomial-based aggregation, proving particularly effective under heterogeneous data settings. These results establish dynamic sparsity as a key optimization for efficient and privacy-preserving federated learning.
