DPrivStats: Differentially Private Classical Statistical Inference

Implements differentially private (DP) versions of common classical statistical procedures, including descriptive statistics (mean, variance, quantiles, histograms), hypothesis tests (t-test, chi-square, Kolmogorov-Smirnov, one-way ANOVA), and regression (closed-form DP linear regression and DP-SGD for generalized linear models). Provides Laplace and Gaussian mechanisms with analytic calibration, exponential mechanism for medians, privacy-aware confidence intervals that account for both sampling and privacy noise, and privacy budget accounting via basic, advanced, and Renyi differential privacy (RDP) composition. Designed for official statistics and privacy-preserving data analysis research.
