Rigid-Profile Input Scheduling Under Constrained Dynamics With a Water Network Application

Adair Lang, Michael Cantoni, Farhad Farokhi, Iman Shames

Journal article  |  2021  |  IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON CONTROL SYSTEMS TECHNOLOGY

The motivation for this work stems from the problem of scheduling requests for flow at supply points located throughout an automat..

A game-theoretic approach to adversarial linear Gaussian classification

Farhad Farokhi

Journal article  |  2021  |  IFAC Journal of Systems and Control

We employ a game-theoretic model to analyze the interaction between an adversary and a classifier. There are two (i.e., positive a..

Distributionally-robust machine learning using locally differentially-private data

Farhad Farokhi

Journal article  |  2021  |  OPTIMIZATION LETTERS

We consider machine learning, particularly regression, using locally-differentially private datasets. The Wasserstein distance is ..

Measuring Information Leakage in Non-stochastic Brute-Force Guessing

Farhad Farokhi, Ni Ding

Conference Proceedings  |  2021  |  2020 IEEE Information Theory Workshop (ITW)

We propose an operational measure of information leakage in a non-stochastic setting to formalize privacy against a brute-force gu..

Non-Stochastic Private Function Evaluation

Farhad Farokhi, Girish Nair

Conference Proceedings  |  2021  |  2020 IEEE Information Theory Workshop (ITW)

We consider private function evaluation to provide query responses based on private data of multiple untrusted entities in such a ..

When Machine Learning Meets Privacy

Bo Liu, Ming Ding, Sina Shaham, Wenny Rahayu, Farhad Farokhi, Zihuai Lin

Journal article  |  2021  |  ACM Computing Surveys

The newly emerged machine learning (e.g., deep learning) methods have become a strong driving force to revolutionize a wide range ..

Feedback control using a strategic sensor

Farhad Farokhi

Journal article  |  2021  |  INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF CONTROL

A dynamic estimation and control problem with a strategic sensor is considered. The strategic sensor may provide corrupted message..

The Cost of Privacy in Asynchronous Differentially-Private Machine Learning

Farhad Farokhi, Nan Wu, David Smith, Mohamed Ali Kaafar

Journal article  |  2021  |  IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON INFORMATION FORENSICS AND SECURITY

We consider training machine learning models using data located on multiple private and geographically-scattered servers with diff..

A Linear Reduction Method for Local Differential Privacy and Log-lift

Ni Ding, Yucheng Liu, Farhad Farokhi

Conference Proceedings  |  2021  |  2021 IEEE International Symposium on Information Theory (ISIT)

This paper considers the problem of publishing data X while protecting the correlated sensitive information S . We propose a linea..
