Dear all, The 1st European Workshop on the Theory of Differential Privacy (EuroTDP) will be held on the 17th of September, at the ISTA Campus near ISTA, Austria. Accepted papers will be presented as posters in the workshop. Workshop website: https://eurotdp.pages.ist.ac.at/ Submission deadline: May 1st, AOE Scope: - New DP mechanisms for wide variety of algorithmic problems - Novel privacy accounting techniques and analyses - Lower bounds/impossibility results related to DP - Relationships between DP and other areas of TCS (for example formal methods) - Other closely allied topics may also be considered, but purely empirical works are not considered within scope Program details: - 3 invited talks by Adam Smith, Jonathan Ullman, and Ravi Kumar - 3 spotlight technical talks - 2 poster sessions Submission guidelines: - Non-archival, no proceedings, previous published or unpublished work all welcome - Submitted file should be a pdf of size at most 10 MB, with at least 1 inch margins and a 10 point font - No page limit, but reviewers only required to read first 4 pages General information: Differential privacy has become the pre-eminent framework to measure and limit loss in privacy when statistics about sensitive data are computed and released. The theoretical study of differential privacy has extended far beyond this scope, establishing deep relationships with long studied areas of theoretical computer science, such as learning theory, robust algorithm design, adaptive data analysis and hypothesis testing. The goal of this workshop is to share and disseminate recent developments in the theory of differential privacy. We invite works on the topics described in the scope above. All further detail may be found on the workshop website (linked above).
