Technically, we
1⃣ formalise the online learning unlearning (OLU) problem setting
2⃣ propose two styles of OLU algorithms
3⃣ In the Online Cvx Optimisation (OCO) framework, we nearly match the Regret guarantees of standard OCO without unlearning

And I think a similar argument holds for synthetic data.

Synthetic data algorithms that don't provably account for privacy probably doesn't provide privacy.

But there are private synthetic data generation algorithms that do like @gautamkamath.com linked above.

Transformations like JL can indeed preserve privacy (arxiv.org/abs/1204.2136), while others may lead to (quantifiable) privacy degradation (arxiv.org/abs/2403.13041).

The point is perhaps that augmentations, by themselves, don’t inherently guarantee an increase or decrease in privacy.
The Johnson-Lindenstrauss Transform Itself Preserves Differential Privacy
This paper proves that an "old dog", namely -- the classical Johnson-Lindenstrauss transform, "performs new tricks" -- it gives a novel way of preserving differential privacy. We show that if we take ...
