Private Prototype Calculation

1. Set your total privacy budget in (0,rho)-zCDP.
2. Divide your total budget into a budget per step. Good starting values are listed below. The algorithm will perform len(Ps) many steps.

Ps = [rho] # One iteration
Ps = [5 / 64 * rho, 7 / 64 * rho, 52 / 64 * rho] # Three iterations

3. Call the private prototype calculation using your train_preds, train_targets and Ps as outlined above.

num_samples = 100
dimensionality = 10
num_classes = 5
train_preds = np.random.normal(0,1,(num_samples, dimensionality))
train_targets = np.random.randint(num_classes, size=(num_samples)) # Supports unbalanced classes
private_prototypes = dp_learning_ff.give_private_prototypes(train_preds, train_targets, Ps)
>>> private_prototypes.shape
(5, 10)
>>> private_prototypes
