Thesis abstract
This thesis tries to leverage two major research areas. The first area concerns the Distribution Learning Theory and the second the Differential Privacy. More specific, given a highly efficient algorithm which learns with ε-accuracy a Poisson Binomial Distribution we try to study its Differential Privacy property. We show that the Algorithm achieves Differential Privacy under specific circumstances (regarding PBD nature). If the PBD close to a (n,k)-Binomial form the algorithm is Differential Privacy. If the PBD is close to a k-sparse form algorithm's privacy depends on PBD cardinality.
