A tunable measure for information leakage called \textit{maximal $\alpha$-leakage} is introduced. This measure quantifies the maximal gain of an adversary in refining a tilted version of its prior belief of any (potentially random) function…
Maximal $\alpha$-leakage is a tunable measure of information leakage based on the accuracy of guessing an arbitrary function of private data based on public data. The parameter $\alpha$ determines the loss function used to measure the…
We study the problem of data disclosure with privacy guarantees, wherein the utility of the disclosed data is ensured via a \emph{hard distortion} constraint. Unlike average distortion, hard distortion provides a deterministic guarantee of…
This paper adopts Arimoto's $\alpha$-Mutual Information as a tunable privacy measure, in a privacy-preserving data release setting that aims to prevent disclosing private data to adversaries. By fine-tuning the privacy metric, we…
In this work, maximal $\alpha$-leakage is introduced to quantify how much a quantum adversary can learn about any sensitive information of data upon observing its disturbed version via a quantum privacy mechanism. We first show that an…
We introduce a family of information leakage measures called maximal $\alpha,\beta$-leakage, parameterized by real numbers $\alpha$ and $\beta$. The measure is formalized via an operational definition involving an adversary guessing an…
Most methods for publishing data with privacy guarantees introduce randomness into datasets which reduces the utility of the published data. In this paper, we study the privacy-utility tradeoff by taking maximal leakage as the privacy…
Information density and its exponential form, known as lift, play a central role in information privacy leakage measures. $\alpha$-lift is the power-mean of lift, which is tunable between the worst-case measure max-lift ($\alpha=\infty$)…
The privacy-utility tradeoff problem is formulated as determining the privacy mechanism (random mapping) that minimizes the mutual information (a metric for privacy leakage) between the private features of the original dataset and a…
The total variation distance is proposed as a privacy measure in an information disclosure scenario when the goal is to reveal some information about available data in return of utility, while retaining the privacy of certain sensitive…
We introduce a privacy measure called pointwise maximal leakage, generalizing the pre-existing notion of maximal leakage, which quantifies the amount of information leaking about a secret $X$ by disclosing a single outcome of a (randomized)…
We introduce a privacy measure called statistic maximal leakage that quantifies how much a privacy mechanism leaks about a specific secret, relative to the adversary's prior information about that secret. Statistic maximal leakage is an…
For $\tilde{f}(t) = \exp(\frac{\alpha-1}{\alpha}t)$, this paper proposes a $\tilde{f}$-mean information gain measure. R\'{e}nyi divergence is shown to be the maximum $\tilde{f}$-mean information gain incurred at each elementary event $y$ of…
The exponential growth of data collection necessitates robust privacy protections that preserve data utility. We address information disclosure against adversaries with bounded prior knowledge, modeled by an entropy constraint $H(X) \geq…
We introduce a family of information leakage measures called maximal $(\alpha,\beta)$-leakage (M$\alpha$beL), parameterized by real numbers $\alpha$ and $\beta$ greater than or equal to 1. The measure is formalized via an operational…
It is often necessary to disclose training data to the public domain, while protecting privacy of certain sensitive labels. We use information theoretic measures to develop such privacy preserving data disclosure mechanisms. Our mechanism…
We consider a problem of guessing, wherein an adversary is interested in knowing the value of the realization of a discrete random variable $X$ on observing another correlated random variable $Y$. The adversary can make multiple (say, $k$)…
There is an increasing concern that most current published research findings are false. The main cause seems to lie in the fundamental disconnection between theory and practice in data analysis. While the former typically relies on…
We introduce a \emph{gain function} viewpoint of information leakage by proposing \emph{maximal $g$-leakage}, a rich class of operationally meaningful leakage measures that subsumes recently introduced leakage measures -- {maximal leakage}…
Data publishing under privacy constraints can be achieved with mechanisms that add randomness to data points when released to an untrusted party, thereby decreasing the data's utility. In this paper, we analyze this privacy-utility tradeoff…
