Online Differentially Private Synthetic Data Generation

We present a polynomial-time algorithm for online differentially private synthetic data generation. For a data stream within the hypercube $[0,1]^d$ and an infinite time horizon, we develop an online algorithm that generates a differentially private synthetic dataset at each time $t$. This algorithm achieves a near-optimal accuracy bound of $O(t^{-1/d}\log(t))$ for $d\geq 2$ and $O(t^{-1}\log^{4.5}(t))$ for $d=1$ in the 1-Wasserstein distance. This result generalizes the previous work on the continual release model for counting queries to include Lipschitz queries. Compared …
