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}…

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, $k$)…

In this paper, we present several novel representations of $\alpha$-mutual information ($\alpha$-MI) in terms of R{\' e}nyi divergence and conditional R{\' e}nyi entropy. The representations are based on the variational characterizations of…

We introduce the study of information leakage through \emph{guesswork}, the minimum expected number of guesses required to guess a random variable. In particular, we define \emph{maximal guesswork leakage} as the multiplicative decrease,…

Given two random variables $X$ and $Y$, an operational approach is undertaken to quantify the ``leakage'' of information from $X$ to $Y$. The resulting measure $\mathcal{L}(X \!\! \to \!\! Y)$ is called \emph{maximal leakage}, and is…

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…

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…

We propose an operational measure of information leakage in a non-stochastic setting to formalize privacy against a brute-force guessing adversary. We use uncertain variables, non-probabilistic counterparts of random variables, to construct…

This paper proposes an operational measure of non-stochastic information leakage to formalize privacy against a brute-force guessing adversary. The information is measured by non-probabilistic uncertainty of uncertain variables, the…

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)…

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…

In this work, the probability of an event under some joint distribution is bounded by measuring it with the product of the marginals instead (which is typically easier to analyze) together with a measure of the dependence between the two…

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…

We introduce a tunable measure for information leakage called maximal alpha-leakage. This measure quantifies the maximal gain of an adversary in inferring any (potentially random) function of a dataset from a release of the data. The…

We leverage the Gibbs inequality and its natural generalization to R\'enyi entropies to derive closed-form parametric expressions of the optimal lower bounds of $\rho$th-order guessing entropy (guessing moment) of a secret taking values on…

For $\tilde{f}(t) = \exp(\frac{\alpha-1}{\alpha}t)$, this paper shows that the Sibson mutual information is an $\alpha$-leakage averaged over the adversary's $\tilde{f}$-mean relative information gain (on the secret) at elementary event of…

We introduce a relative variant of information loss to characterize the behavior of deterministic input-output systems. We show that the relative loss is closely related to Renyi's information dimension. We provide an upper bound for…

This paper proposes an $\alpha$-leakage measure for $\alpha\in[0,\infty)$ by a cross entropy interpretation of R{\'{e}}nyi entropy. While R\'{e}nyi entropy was originally defined as an $f$-mean for $f(t) = \exp((1-\alpha)t)$, we reveal that…

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…
