Data is the lifeblood of the modern world, forming a fundamental part of AI, decision-making, and research advances. With increase in interest in data, governments have taken important steps towards a regulated data world, drastically impacting data sharing and data usability and resulting in massive amounts of data confined within the walls of organizations. While synthetic data generation (SDG) is an appealing solution to break down these walls and enable data sharing, the main drawback of existing solutions is the assumption of a trusted aggregator for generative model training. Given that many data holders may not want to, or be legally allowed to, entrust a central entity with their raw data, we propose a framework for collaborative and private generation of synthetic tabular data from distributed data holders. Our solution is general, applicable to any marginal-based SDG, and provides input privacy by replacing the trusted aggregator with secure multiparty computation (MPC) protocols and output privacy via differential privacy (DP). We demonstrate the applicability and scalability of our approach for the state-of-the-art select-measure-generate SDG algorithms MWEM+PGM and AIM.
We suggest a simple Gaussian mixture model for data generation that complies with Feldman's long tail theory (2020). We demonstrate that a linear classifier cannot decrease the generalization error below a certain...

Coastal residents have difficulty in fulfilling the needs of clean water due to tidal water and tidal water intrusion. Meanwhile, clean water is a crucial component in carrying out activities of daily life. This initiative aims to provide an alternative solution in the form of technology to treat water polluted by saline water into clean water. This initiative used the method of electrolysis, filtration, and ozonation. Electrolysis has functions to remove salt contained and reduce levels of heavy metals while filtration functions to filter out the impurities in the form of solid particles, and ozonation takes a role to kill bacteria. Moreover, the target output of this work is the creation of a prototype by using this technology as a technology that can treat water polluted by saline water into clean water. The parameters assessed from this initiative are physical, chemical, and biological parameters of clean water. The results of the total test of dissolved solids of water before processing were 7130 ppm while it was 2490 ppm after getting treatment. The decreasing total value of dissolved solids is 65.077%, which indicates that the test was successful. The result of an electrical conductivity test of water before processing is 310 mA while after processing is 88.6 mA. The decrease in the current value of 71.419% indicates that the test was successful. The results of the turbidity test of water before processing are 0 FAU while after getting treatment is 0 FAU. The turbidity value remains 0, which indicates the test was successful. The results of the pH test of water before processing were 5.7 while the result after treatment got 6.1. The increase in pH value towards pH 7 (neutral) indicates that the test was successful. The test results of salt and heavy metals (Fe, Cu, Cl, Na, and Pb) of water before processing were 0.073 ppm, 0.07 ppm, 0.17 ppm, 0.04 ppm, and 4.24 ppm while after processing was 0 ppm, 0 ppm, 0.07 ppm, 0.03 ppm, and 1.36 ppm. There was a decrease

The predefined-time tracking control of an uncertain second-order multi-agent system is studied in this paper. To tackle both the unconstrained and constrained situations simultaneously, a uniform nonlinear transformation function is proposed. In addition, a time base generator (TBG) function is constructed to facilitate designing a predefined-time control. Moreover, to simplify the computational complexity of the controller design, a predefined-time characteristic filter is proposed by utilizing the TBG function. And also based on the TBG function, an adaptive law is developed to estimate the unknown norms of the fuzzy weights. Consequently, a predefined-time tracking controller based on the TBG technique is designed to achieve the state constraints and consensus tracking. At last, to validate the predefined-time control strategy for the uncertain nonlinear multi-agent system, the simulations are presented.

The detailed Josephson-Anderson relation, which equates instantaneously the volume-integrated vorticity flux and the work by pressure drop, has been the key to drag reduction in superconductors and superfluids. We employ a classical version of this relation to investigate the dynamics of polymer drag-reduced channel flows, particularly in the high-extent drag reduction (HDR) regime which is known to exhibit strong space-time intermittency. We show that high drag is not created instantaneously by near-wall coherent vortex structures as assumed in prior works. These predominantly spanwise near-wall vortex structures can produce a net “up-gradient” flux of vorticity toward the wall, which instead reduces instantaneous drag. Increase of wall vorticity and skin friction due to this up-gradient flux occurs after an apparent lag of several advection times, increasing with the Weissenberg number. This increasing lag appears to be due to polymer damping of up-gradient nonlinear vorticity transport that arises from large-scale eddies in the logarithmic layer. The relatively greater polymer damping of down-gradient transport due to small-scale eddies results in lower net vorticity flux and hence lower drag. The Josephson-Anderson relation thus provides an exact tool to diagnose the mechanism of polymer drag reduction in terms of vorticity dynamics and it explains also prior puzzling observations on transient drag reduction, as for centerline-release experiments in pipe flow.
