Book Towards Efficient and Effective Privacy Preserving Machine Learning

Download or read book Towards Efficient and Effective Privacy Preserving Machine Learning written by Lingxiao Wang and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The past decade has witnessed the fast growth and tremendous success of machine learning. However, recent studies showed that existing machine learning models are vulnerable to privacy attacks, such as membership inference attacks, and thus pose severe threats to personal privacy. Therefore, one of the major challenges in machine learning is to learn effectively from enormous amounts of sensitive data without giving up on privacy. This dissertation summarizes our contributions to the field of privacy-preserving machine learning, i.e., solving machine learning problems with strong privacy and utility guarantees. In the first part of the dissertation, we consider the privacy-preserving sparse learning problem. More specifically, we establish a novel differentially private hard-thresholding method as well as a knowledge-transfer framework for solving the sparse learning problem. We show that our proposed methods are not only efficient but can also achieve improved privacy and utility guarantees. In the second part of the dissertation, we propose novel efficient and effective algorithms for solving empirical risk minimization problems. To be more specific, our proposed algorithms can reduce the computational complexities and improve the utility guarantees for solving nonconvex optimization problems such as training deep neural networks. In the last part of the dissertation, we study the privacy-preserving empirical risk minimization in the distributed setting. In such a setting, we propose a new privacy-preserving framework by combining the multi-party computation (MPC) protocol and differentially private mechanisms and show that our framework can achieve better privacy and utility guarantees compared with existing methods. The methods and techniques proposed in this dissertation form a line of researches that deepens our understandings of the trade-off between privacy, utility and efficient in privacy-preserving machine learning, and could also help us develop more efficient and effective private learning algorithms.

Book Towards Ethical and Robust Privacy preserving Machine Learning

Download or read book Towards Ethical and Robust Privacy preserving Machine Learning written by Hui Hu and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Privacy in machine learning has received tremendous attention in recent years, which mainly involves data privacy and model privacy. Recent studies have revealed numerous privacy attacks and privacy-preserving methodologies, that vary across a broad range of applications. To date, however, there exist few powerful methodologies in addressing privacy-preserving challenges in ethical machine learning and deep learning due to the difficulty of guaranteeing model robustness and privacy-preserving simultaneously. In this dissertation, two critical problems will be investigated and addressed: data privacy-preserving in ethical machine learning, and model privacy-preserving in deep learning under powerful side-channel power attacks. First, we investigate the problem of data privacy-preserving in ethical machine learning with the following two considerations: (1) Users’ privacy (i.e., race, religion, gender, etc.) is severely leaked in ethical machine learning as most existing techniques require full access to sensitive personal data to achieve model fairness. To address this pressing privacy issue, we propose a distributed privacy-preserving fair machine learning mechanism based on random projection theory and multi-party computation. Through rigorous theoretical analysis and comprehensive simulations, we can prove that the proposed mechanism is efficient for privacy-preserving while guaranteeing good model robustness. Further, (2) considering the dependency relation of graph data in ethical machine learning, an individual’s privacy can be leaked due to the sensitive information disclosure of their neighbors. Typically, in a graph neural network, the sensitive information disclosure of non-private users potentially exposes the sensitive information of private users in the same graph owing to the homophily property and message-passing mechanism of graph neural networks. To address this problem, based on disentangled representation learning, we propose a principled privacy-preserving graph neural network model to mitigate individual privacy leakage of private users in a graph, which maintains competitive model accuracy compared with non-private graph neural networks. We verify the effectiveness of the proposed privacy-preserving model through extensive experiments and theoretical analysis. Second, as the disclosure of model privacy can allow adversaries to potentially infer users’ extremely sensitive decisions, further, we study model privacy-preserving in deep learning under side-channel power attacks. Side-channel power attacks are powerful attacks that infer the internal information of a traditional deep neural network (i.e., model privacy), which can be leveraged to infer some important decisions of users. Therefore, with the increasing applications of deep learning, training privacy-preserving deep neural networks under side-channel power attacks is a pressing task. This dissertation proposes an efficient solution for training privacy-preserving deep neural networks to resist powerful side-channel power attacks, which randomly trains multiple independent sub-networks to generate random power traces in the temporal domain. The comprehensive theoretical analysis and experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach in model privacy-preserving and model robustness under side-channel power attacks.

Book Privacy Preserving Deep Learning

Download or read book Privacy Preserving Deep Learning written by Kwangjo Kim and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-07-22 with total page 81 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses the state-of-the-art in privacy-preserving deep learning (PPDL), especially as a tool for machine learning as a service (MLaaS), which serves as an enabling technology by combining classical privacy-preserving and cryptographic protocols with deep learning. Google and Microsoft announced a major investment in PPDL in early 2019. This was followed by Google’s infamous announcement of “Private Join and Compute,” an open source PPDL tools based on secure multi-party computation (secure MPC) and homomorphic encryption (HE) in June of that year. One of the challenging issues concerning PPDL is selecting its practical applicability despite the gap between the theory and practice. In order to solve this problem, it has recently been proposed that in addition to classical privacy-preserving methods (HE, secure MPC, differential privacy, secure enclaves), new federated or split learning for PPDL should also be applied. This concept involves building a cloud framework that enables collaborative learning while keeping training data on client devices. This successfully preserves privacy and while allowing the framework to be implemented in the real world. This book provides fundamental insights into privacy-preserving and deep learning, offering a comprehensive overview of the state-of-the-art in PPDL methods. It discusses practical issues, and leveraging federated or split-learning-based PPDL. Covering the fundamental theory of PPDL, the pros and cons of current PPDL methods, and addressing the gap between theory and practice in the most recent approaches, it is a valuable reference resource for a general audience, undergraduate and graduate students, as well as practitioners interested learning about PPDL from the scratch, and researchers wanting to explore PPDL for their applications.

Book The Algorithmic Foundations of Differential Privacy

Download or read book The Algorithmic Foundations of Differential Privacy written by Cynthia Dwork and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The problem of privacy-preserving data analysis has a long history spanning multiple disciplines. As electronic data about individuals becomes increasingly detailed, and as technology enables ever more powerful collection and curation of these data, the need increases for a robust, meaningful, and mathematically rigorous definition of privacy, together with a computationally rich class of algorithms that satisfy this definition. Differential Privacy is such a definition. The Algorithmic Foundations of Differential Privacy starts out by motivating and discussing the meaning of differential privacy, and proceeds to explore the fundamental techniques for achieving differential privacy, and the application of these techniques in creative combinations, using the query-release problem as an ongoing example. A key point is that, by rethinking the computational goal, one can often obtain far better results than would be achieved by methodically replacing each step of a non-private computation with a differentially private implementation. Despite some powerful computational results, there are still fundamental limitations. Virtually all the algorithms discussed herein maintain differential privacy against adversaries of arbitrary computational power -- certain algorithms are computationally intensive, others are efficient. Computational complexity for the adversary and the algorithm are both discussed. The monograph then turns from fundamentals to applications other than query-release, discussing differentially private methods for mechanism design and machine learning. The vast majority of the literature on differentially private algorithms considers a single, static, database that is subject to many analyses. Differential privacy in other models, including distributed databases and computations on data streams, is discussed. The Algorithmic Foundations of Differential Privacy is meant as a thorough introduction to the problems and techniques of differential privacy, and is an invaluable reference for anyone with an interest in the topic.

Book Towards a Complete Privacy Preserving Machine Learning Pipeline

Download or read book Towards a Complete Privacy Preserving Machine Learning Pipeline written by Ali Burak Ünal and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Machine learning has proven its success on various problems from many different domains. Different machine learning algorithms use different approaches to capture the underlying patterns in the data. Even though the amount varies between the machine learning algorithms, they require sufficient amounts of data to recognize those patterns. One of the easiest ways to meet this need of the machine learning algorithms is to use multiple sources generating the same type of data. Such a solution is feasible considering that the speed of data generation and the number of sources generating these data have been increasing in parallel to the developments in technology. One can easily satisfy the desire of the machine learning algorithms for data using these sources. However, this can cause a privacy leakage. The data generated by these sources may contain sensitive information that can be used for undesirable purposes. Therefore, although the machine learning algorithms demand for data, the sources may not be willing or even allowed to share their data. A similar dilemma occurs when the data owner wants to extract useful information from the data by using machine learning algorithms but it does not have enough computational power or knowledge. In this case, the data source may want to outsource this task to external parties that offer machine learning algorithms as a service. Similarly, in this case, the sensitive information in the data can be the decisive factor for the owner not to choose outsourcing, which then ends up with non-utilized data for the owner. In order to address these kinds of dilemmas and issues, this thesis aims to come up with a complete privacy preserving machine learning pipeline. It introduces several studies that address different phases of the pipeline so that all phases of a machine learning algorithm can be performed privately. One of these phases addressed in this thesis is training of a machine learning algorithm. The privacy preserving training of kernel-based machine learning algorithms are addressed in several different works with different cryptographic techniques, one of which is a our newly developed encryption scheme. The different techniques have different advantages over the others. Furthermore, this thesis introduces our study addressing the testing phase of not only the kernel-based machine learning algorithms but also a special type of recurrent neural network, namely recurrent kernel networks, which is the first study performing such an inference, without compromising privacy. To enable the privacy preserving inference on recurrent kernel networks, this thesis introduces a framework, called CECILIA, with two novel functions, which are the exponential and the inverse square root of the Gram matrix, and efficient versions of the existing functions, which are the multiplexer and the most significant bit. Using this framework and other approaches in the corresponding studies, it is possible to perform privacy preserving inference on various pre-trained machine learning algorithms. Besides the training and testing of machine learning algorithms in a privacy preserving way, this thesis also presents a work that aims to evaluate the performance of machine learning algorithms without sacrificing privacy. This work employs CECILIA to realize the area under curve calculation for two different curve-based evaluations, namely the receiver operating characteristic curve and the precision-recall curve, in a privacy preserving manner. All the proposed approaches are shown to be correct using several machine learning tasks and evaluated for the scalability of the parameters of the corresponding system/algorithm using synthetic data. The results show that the privacy preserving training and testing of kernel-based machine learning algorithms is possible with different settings and the privacy preserving inference on a pre-trained recurrent kernel network is feasible using CECILIA. Additionally, CECILIA also allows the exact area under curve computation to evaluate the performance of a machine learning algorithm without compromising privacy.

Book Secure and Privacy Aware Machine Learning

Download or read book Secure and Privacy Aware Machine Learning written by Xuhui Chen and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the onset of the big data era, designing efficient and secure machine learning frameworks to analyze large-scale data is in dire need. This dissertation considers two machine learning paradigms, the centralized learning scenario, where we study the secure outsourcing problem in cloud computing, and the distributed learning scenario, where we explore blockchain techniques to remove the untrusted central server to solve the security problems. In the centralized machine learning paradigm, inference using deep neural networks (DNNs) may be outsourced to the cloud due to its high computational cost, which, however, raises security concerns. Particularly, the data involved in DNNs can be highly sensitive, such as in medical, financial, commercial applications, and hence should be kept private. Besides, DNN models owned by research institutions or commercial companies are their valuable intellectual properties and can contain proprietary information, which should be protected as well. Moreover, an untrusted cloud service provider may return inaccurate and even erroneous computing results. To address above issues, we propose a secure outsourcing framework for deep neural network inference called SecureNets, which can preserve both a user's data privacy and his/her neural network model privacy, and also verify the computation results returned by the cloud. Specifically, we employ a secure matrix transformation scheme in SecureNets to avoid privacy leakage of the data and the model. Meanwhile, we propose a verification method that can efficiently verify the correctness of cloud computing results. Our simulation results on four- and five-layer deep neural networks demonstrate that SecureNets can reduce the processing runtime by up to 64%. Compared with CryptoNets, one of the previous schemes, SecureNets can increase the throughput by 104.45% while reducing the data transmission size by 69.78% per instance. We further improve the privacy level in SecureNets and implement it in a practical scenario. The Internet of Things (IoT) emerge as a ubiquitous information collection and processing paradigm that can potentially exploit the collected massive data for various applications like smart health, smart transportation, cyber-physical systems, by taking advantage of machine learning technologies. However, these data are usually unlabeled, while the labeling process is usually both time and effort consuming. Active learning is one approach to reduce the data labeling cost by only sending the most informative samples to experts for labeling. In this process, two most computation-intensive operations, i.e., sample selection and learning model training, hinder the use of active learning on resource-limited IoT devices. To address this issue, we develop a secure outsourcing framework for deep active learning (SEDAL) by considering a general active learning framework with a deep neural network (DNN) learning model. The improved SecureNets is adopted in the model inferences in sample selection and DNN learning phases. Compared with traditional homomorphic encryption based secure outsourcing schemes, our scheme reduces the computational complexity at the user from O(n^3) to O(n^2). To evaluate the performance of the proposed system, we implement it on an android phone and Amazon AWS cloud for an arrhythmia diagnosis application. Experiment results show that the proposed scheme can obtain a well-trained classifier using fewer queried samples, and the computation time and communication overhead are acceptable and practical. Besides the centralized learning paradigms, in practice, data can also be generated by multiple parties and stored in a geographically distributed manner, which spurs the study of distributed machine learning. Traditional master-worker type of distributed machine learning algorithms assumes a trusted central server and focuses on the privacy issue in linear learning models, while privacy in nonlinear learning models and security issues are not well studied. To address these issues, in this work, we explore the blockchain technique to propose a decentralized privacy-preserving and secure machine learning system, called LearningChain, by considering a general (linear or nonlinear) learning model and without a trusted central server. Specifically, we design a decentralized Stochastic Gradient Descent (SGD) algorithm to learn a general predictive model over the blockchain. In decentralized SGD, we develop differential privacy based schemes to protect each party's data privacy, and propose an l-nearest aggregation algorithm to protect the system from potential Byzantine attacks. We also conduct theoretical analysis on the privacy and security of the proposed LearningChain. Finally, we implement LearningChain and demonstrate its efficiency and effectiveness through extensive experiments.
