Quantum Privacy Aggregation of Teacher Ensembles (QPATE) for Privacy-preserving Quantum Machine Learning

Abstract

The utility of machine learning has rapidly expanded in the last two decades and presents an ethical challenge. Papernot et. al. developed a technique, known as Private Aggregation of Teacher Ensembles (PATE) to enable federated learning in which multiple teacher models are trained on disjoint datasets. This study is the first to apply PATE to an ensemble of quantum neural networks (QNN) to pave a new way of ensuring privacy in quantum machine learning (QML) models.
