Differentially Private Submodular Maximization with a Knapsack Constraint (opens in new tab)

Submodular maximization subject to a knapsack constraint (SMK) is a fundamental problem in discrete optimization, with wide-ranging applications in machine learning and related fields. As these applications increasingly involve sensitive individual data, there is a growing need for high-utility algorithms that provide formal privacy guarantees. In this work, we study the SMK problem under differential privacy, considering both monotone and non-m...
