*Talk Title: *
Differentially Private Machine Learning for Decentralized and Time-evolving
Data
*Abstract:*
Decentralized machine learning focuses on learning from data distributed at
multiple related sites, where due to privacy or regulatory concerns, data
pooling is not an option.
In contrast to the real-world requirements, current methods in
decentralized machine learning, notably federated learning, force
participating sites into tight collaboration where the sites are forced
into symmetric sharing and shared decision making. That is, all sites have
to contribute their data to benefit from the learning process, and have to
share the same model types, architectures, training methodologies, feature
and sample spaces, etc. The issues are compounded in the case of
privacy-preservation and time-evolving data streams, where the sites have
to agree on a common, one-size-fits-all privacy budget, and the continuous
model updates required for handling time-evolving data streams erode the
privacy budget, deteriorating utility. Forced tight collaboration creates
barriers to participation where participating sites want to benefit from
other sites’ data but do not wish to share their own information or change
the existing data analysis practices.
In this work, we propose an end-to-end solution for differentially private
decentralized learning. Where our first contribution is PubSub-ML, a
differentially private, decentralized learning framework under loose
collaboration for static data. Proposed as an alternative to federated
learning, PubSub-ML allows the participating sites to maintain autonomy on
all decisions related to their learning processes. Our second contribution
is DP-Ensemble, a differentially private, dynamic model integration
approach for a single site that allows unlimited model updates for
time-evolving data streams on a fixed privacy budget. Our third
contribution extends PubSub-ML to data streams using DP-Ensemble, allowing
differentially private, decentralized modeling of data streams under loose
collaboration and a fixed privacy budget. All contributions are supported
by extensive empirical evaluation.

Title: Adaptive database systems: Navigating chaos in a Heterogeneous
Landscape
Abstract: Database systems face new hurdles with the rise of diverse
hardware setups and varying workloads. Evolving hardware, with its mix
of different components and changing configurations, complicates how
data moves within systems, affecting performance.
At the same time, the surge in data-centric analytics and powerful AI
models brings a wide range of workloads that systems must handle. The
old way of designing systems based on predicted performance doesn't work
well anymore, leading to inefficiencies.
This talk dives into the complexities of modern hardware and diverse
workloads in database systems. It highlights the limitations of standard
approaches. It stresses the need for systems that can adapt without
relying on fixed assumptions about hardware or workloads. Our goal is to
create resilient and efficient database systems ready for heterogeneity
and real-time evolution.
Anastasia Ailamaki is a Professor of Computer and Communication Sciences
at the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), a visiting
researcher at Google, and the co-founder and Chair of the Board of
Directors of RAW Labs SA, a Swiss company developing systems to analyze
heterogeneous big data from multiple sources efficiently. She earned a
Ph.D. in Computer Science from the University of Wisconsin-Madison in
2000. She has received the 2019 ACM SIGMOD Edgar F. Codd Innovations

society, various aspects of data management, such as privacy, security,
and fairness, must also be taken into consideration. This workshop aims
to provide an opportunity for presentations and discussions, especially
for young researchers and students, in the area of the convergence of
data science and data engineering, where many new research topics and
results are emerging.
The topics of the workshop include, but are not limited to:
Data Science and AI: Large Language Models (LLM), Explainable AI (XAI),
Interpretable Machine Learning
Data Engineering and Databases: Big Data, Graph Data, Data Security,
Data Privacy
Information Retrieval and Recommendation: Social Media, Information
Credibility, Polarization and Echo Chambers
Multimedia Data: Media Understanding, AI Generated Content, Multimodal
AI
Human Factors: Human Computation, Crowdsourcing, Human-in-the-Loop
Methods, Bias and Fairness
Application Domains: Healthcare, Education, Mobility

Short Paper Call for Participation
IEEE VIS 2024 solicits submissions in a short paper format. The Short Papers committee welcomes submissions describing original work. The work should focus on concise research contributions, incremental work such as follow-up extensions, evaluations of existing methods, replication studies, or exploratory work. The committee also welcomes papers describing new systems or tools that offer practical value.
Short Papers often fall into one or more of five main categories: technique or algorithm, system or tool, application or design study, empirical study, theory, or model. The contributions of a short paper should be commensurate with the nature of the paper. Technique or algorithm papers should provide clear yet concise technical contributions. System or tool papers should state the value, articulate the target audience, and make an effort toward accessibility (e.g., software release). Papers focusing on visualization applications or design studies should demonstrate lessons learned or insights gleaned for visualization research on which future contributors can build. Empirical study papers should justify the validity and importance of the results, including, where appropriate, the definition of hypotheses, tasks, data sets, the rigorous collection and examination/analysis/coding of data, the selection of subjects and cases, as well as validation, discussion, and conclusions.
Theory or model papers should illuminate how visualization techniques complement and exploit properties of human vision and cognition, as well as how researchers conduct effective and rigorous visualization studies.
The short paper submission deadline is April 30, 2024, creating an opportunity to showcase late-breaking research results.
Submission Guidelines:
Short papers can be up to four pages plus up to one page of references. Submissions will be in the VGTC conference two-column format, in line with the IEEE VIS formatting guidelines.
https://tc.computer.org/vgtc/publications/conference/
Short Papers allow single-blind (not anonymized) or double-blind (anonymized) submissions while reviewers’ identities are not revealed. Authors may choose whether to anonymize their submission or not. Double-blind submissions must NOT include author names or institutions on the cover page of the initial submission, and authors should make an effort to ensure that there is no revealing information in the text, such as apparent citations to authors’ previous work, or making acknowledgments to colleagues of long standing.
Publication Details:
Accepted short papers will be presented at the VIS conference. They will also be included in the conference proceedings and published in IEEE Xplore and assigned a DOI.
Authors of accepted short papers may subsequently submit to TVCG a full paper on the same topic, consistent with the TVCG standard requiring that papers previously published in conference proceedings make additional substantial scientific contributions that build upon the material of the conference publication or include this material as a part of a larger research effort. The authors are encouraged to mention this in their cover letter, provide a copy of the previous conference submission, and outline the added contributions. Providing these materials will help TVCG reviewers to better gauge the scientific value of the work and defuse any possible misconceptions. TVCG papers, including the ones presented as VIS short papers, can be presented at IEEE VIS.
Scientific work builds naturally on previous work, including work published as a short paper at VIS. Accepted VIS short papers can contribute to VIS full paper submissions in a future year. But, such submissions should not contain verbatim copies of previous content. Furthermore, any subsequent full paper submission to VIS must represent a novel scientific contribution.
Important Dates:
Submission Deadline: April 30, 2024 (no separate abstract deadline)
Notification: June 15, 2024
Submission of Camera-Ready Final Version: August 8, 2024
All deadlines are at 11:59pm (23:59) AoE Anywhere on Earth (AoE).
