Recursive Binary Identification with Differential Privacy and Data Tampering Attacks

In this paper, we consider the parameter estimation in a bandwidth-constrained sensor network communicating through an insecure medium. The sensor performs a local quantization, and transmits a 1-bit message to an estimation center through a wireless medium where the transmission of information is vulnerable to attackers. Both eavesdroppers and data tampering attackers are considered in our setting. A differential privacy method is used to protect the sensitive information against eavesdroppers. Then, a recursive projection algorithm is proposed such that the estimation center achieves the almost sure convergence and mean-square convergence when quantized measurements, differential privacy, and data tampering attacks are considered in a uniform framework. A privacy analysis including the convergence rate with privacy or without privacy is given. Further, we extend the problem to multi-agent systems. For this case, a distributed recursive projection algorithm is proposed with guaranteed almost sure and mean square convergence. A simulation example is provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithms.

Saliency-Aware Regularized Quantization Calibration for Large Language Models

Post-training quantization (PTQ) is an effective approach for deploying large language models (LLMs) under memory and latency constraints. Most existing PTQ methods determine quantization parameters by minimizing a layer-wise reconstruction error on a predetermined calibration dataset, typically optimized via either scale search or Gram-based methods. However, from the perspective of generalization risk, existing PTQ calibration objectives based solely on empirical reconstruction error over limited or unrepresentative calibration data may move the quantized weights away from the original floating-point weights, potentially degrading downstream performance. To address this issue, we propose \emph{Regularized Quantization Calibration} (RQC), a unified framework that augments standard PTQ objectives with a regularizer that explicitly controls weight deviation from the original weights. We further generalize this framework to incorporate a saliency-aware regularizer, resulting in \emph{Saliency-Aware Regularized Quantization Calibration} (SARQC). The proposed regularization encourages quantized weights to remain close to the original weights during calibration, leading to improved generalization at inference time. SARQC integrates seamlessly into existing PTQ pipelines and enhances both scale-search-based and Gram-based methods under a unified formulation. Extensive experiments on dense and Mixture-of-Experts LLMs demonstrate consistent improvements in perplexity and zero-shot accuracy, without introducing additional inference overhead.
