The collection of individuals' data has become commonplace in many industries. Local differential privacy (LDP) offers a rigorous approach to preserving privacy whereby the individual privatises their data locally, allowing only their…

This paper attempts to answer the question whether neural network pruning can be used as a tool to achieve differential privacy without losing much data utility. As a first step towards understanding the relationship between neural network…

Generative AI offers transformative potential for high-stakes domains such as healthcare and finance, yet privacy and regulatory barriers hinder the use of real-world data. To address this, differentially private synthetic data generation…

Authorship obfuscation techniques hold the promise of helping people protect their privacy in online communications by automatically rewriting text to hide the identity of the original author. However, obfuscation has been evaluated in…

Privacy is of worldwide concern regarding activities and processes that include sensitive data. For this reason, many countries and territories have been recently approving regulations controlling the extent to which organizations may…

Privacy-preserving voice conversion aims to remove only the attributes of speech audio that convey identity information, keeping other speech characteristics intact. This paper presents a mechanism for privacy-preserving voice conversion…

We present a framework to statistically audit the privacy guarantee conferred by a differentially private machine learner in practice. While previous works have taken steps toward evaluating privacy loss through poisoning attacks or…

Black-box machine learning models are used in critical decision-making domains, giving rise to several calls for more algorithmic transparency. The drawback is that model explanations can leak information about the training data and the…

With the rapid development of artificial intelligence, large language models (LLMs) have made remarkable advancements in natural language processing. These models are trained on vast datasets to exhibit powerful language understanding and…

Reconstruction attacks allow an adversary to regenerate data samples of the training set using access to only a trained model. It has been recently shown that simple heuristics can reconstruct data samples from language models, making this…

Contextual word representations generated by language models (LMs) learn spurious associations present in the training corpora. Recent findings reveal that adversaries can exploit these associations to reverse-engineer the private…

The emergence of voice-assistant devices ushers in delightful user experiences not just on the smart home front, but also in diverse educational environments from classrooms to personalized-learning/tutoring. However, the use of voice as an…

This paper considers the problem of enhancing user privacy in common machine learning development tasks, such as data annotation and inspection, by substituting the real data with samples form a generative adversarial network. We propose…

Data privacy is an increasingly important aspect of many real-world Data sources that contain sensitive information may have immense potential which could be unlocked using the right privacy enhancing transformations, but current methods…

Protecting patient privacy in clinical narratives is essential for enabling secondary use of healthcare data under regulations such as GDPR and HIPAA. While manual de-identification remains the gold standard, it is costly and slow,…

We study the problem of data release with privacy, where data is made available with privacy guarantees while keeping the usability of the data as high as possible --- this is important in health-care and other domains with sensitive data.…

Machine learning with formal privacy-preserving techniques like Differential Privacy (DP) allows one to derive valuable insights from sensitive medical imaging data while promising to protect patient privacy, but it usually comes at a sharp…

Self-supervised learning has emerged as a powerful approach for leveraging large-scale unlabeled data to improve model performance in various domains. In this paper, we explore masked self-supervised pre-training for text recognition…

In this work, we focus on protection against identity disclosure in the publication of sparse multidimensional data. Existing multidimensional anonymization techniquesa) protect the privacy of users either by altering the set of…

Differential privacy provides a strong form of privacy and allows preserving most of the original characteristics of the dataset. Utilizing these benefits requires one to design specific differentially private data analysis algorithms. In…
