We systematically study the calibration of classifiers trained with differentially private stochastic gradient descent (DP-SGD) and observe miscalibration across a wide range of vision and language tasks. Our analysis identifies per-example gradient clipping in DP-SGD as a major cause of miscalibration, and we show that existing baselines for improving private calibration only provide small improvements in calibration error while occasionally causing large degradation in accuracy. As a solution,…
