Universally Instance-Optimal Mechanisms for Private Statistical Estimation

We consider the problem of instance-optimal statistical estimation under the constraint of differential privacy where mechanisms must adapt to the difficulty of the input dataset. We prove a new instance specific lower bound using a new divergence and show it characterizes the local minimax optimal rates for private statistical estimation. We propose two new mechanisms …
