This novel algorithm for online federated learning uses temporally correlated noise to balance utility with privacy while releasing models continuously. The perturbed iterate analysis helps control the impact of DP noise on utility, addressing challenges posed by non-iid data and local updates. By controlling drift errors under quasi-strong convexity conditions, the algorithm establishes a dynamic regret bound over the entire time horizon, considering key parameters and environmental changes. Numerical experiments demonstrate its effectiveness.

This paper develops an innovative way to keep models private while sharing them online. It creates a special kind of noise that helps maintain both privacy and usefulness. The method handles noisy data and updates from different sources. By understanding how this algorithm works, we can see why it’s important for ensuring privacy in complex environments.
