Training Differentially Private Models with Secure Multiparty Computation

no code implementations5 Feb 2022 Sikha Pentyala, Davis Railsback, Ricardo Maia, Rafael Dowsley, David Melanson, Anderson Nascimento, Martine De Cock

We address the problem of learning a machine learning model from training data that originates at multiple data owners while providing formal privacy guarantees regarding the protection of each owner's data.

Privacy-Preserving Training of Tree Ensembles over Continuous Data

no code implementations5 Jun 2021 Samuel Adams, Chaitali Choudhary, Martine De Cock, Rafael Dowsley, David Melanson, Anderson C. A. Nascimento, Davis Railsback, Jianwei Shen

In this paper we propose three more efficient alternatives for secure training of decision tree based models on data with continuous features, namely: (1) secure discretization of the data, followed by secure training of a decision tree over the discretized data; (2) secure discretization of the data, followed by secure training of a random forest over the discretized data; and (3) secure training of extremely randomized trees (``extra-trees'') on the original data.

Round and Communication Balanced Protocols for Oblivious Evaluation of Finite State Machines

no code implementations20 Mar 2021 Rafael Dowsley, Caleb Horst, Anderson C. A. Nascimento

We propose protocols for obliviously evaluating finite-state machines, i. e., the evaluation is shared between the provider of the finite-state machine and the provider of the input string in such a manner that neither party learns the other's input, and the states being visited are hidden from both.

Privacy-Preserving Feature Selection with Secure Multiparty Computation

no code implementations6 Feb 2021 Xiling Li, Rafael Dowsley, Martine De Cock

In this work, we propose the first MPC based protocol for private feature selection based on the filter method, which is independent of model training, and can be used in combination with any MPC protocol to rank features.

Privacy-Preserving Video Classification with Convolutional Neural Networks

no code implementations6 Feb 2021 Sikha Pentyala, Rafael Dowsley, Martine De Cock

We propose a privacy-preserving implementation of single-frame method based video classification with convolutional neural networks that allows a party to infer a label from a video without necessitating the video owner to disclose their video to other entities in an unencrypted manner.

Private Speech Classification with Secure Multiparty Computation

no code implementations1 Jul 2020 Kyle Bittner, Martine De Cock, Rafael Dowsley

We evaluate the efficiency-security-accuracy trade-off of the proposed solution in a use case for privacy-preserving emotion detection from speech with a convolutional neural network.

High Performance Logistic Regression for Privacy-Preserving Genome Analysis

1 code implementation13 Feb 2020 Martine De Cock, Rafael Dowsley, Anderson C. A. Nascimento, Davis Railsback, Jianwei Shen, Ariel Todoki

In this paper, we present a secure logistic regression training protocol and its implementation, with a new subprotocol to securely compute the activation function.

VirtualIdentity: Privacy-Preserving User Profiling

no code implementations30 Aug 2018 Sisi Wang, Wing-Sea Poon, Golnoosh Farnadi, Caleb Horst, Kebra Thompson, Michael Nickels, Rafael Dowsley, Anderson C. A. Nascimento, Martine De Cock

User profiling from user generated content (UGC) is a common practice that supports the business models of many social media companies.
