This paper considers the problem of differentially private semi-supervised transfer and multi-task learning. The notion of \emph{membership-mapping} has been developed using measure theory basis to learn data representation via a fuzzy membership function. An alternative conception of deep autoencoder, referred to as \emph{Conditionally Deep Membership-Mapping Autoencoder (CDMMA)}, is considered for transferrable deep learning. Under practice-oriented settings, an analytical solution for the learning of CDMMA can be derived by means of variational optimization. The paper proposes a transfer and multi-task learning approach that combines CDMMA with a tailored noise adding mechanism to achieve a given level of privacy-loss bound with the minimum perturbation of the data. Numerous experiments were carried out using MNIST, USPS, Office, and Caltech256 datasets to verify the competitive robust performance of the proposed methodology.

A fuzzy theoretic analytical approach was recently introduced that leads to efficient and robust models while addressing automatically the typical issues associated to parametric deep models. However, a formal conceptualization of the fuzzy theoretic analytical deep models is still not available. This paper introduces using measure theoretic basis the notion of \emph{membership-mapping} for representing data points through attribute values (motivated by fuzzy theory). A property of the membership-mapping, that can be exploited for data representation learning, is of providing an interpolation on the given data points in the data space. An analytical approach to the variational learning of a membership-mappings based data representation model is considered.
