In this paper, we present Fedlearn-Algo, an open-source privacy preserving machine learning platform. We use this platform to demonstrate our research and development results on privacy preserving machine learning algorithms. As the first batch of novel FL algorithm examples, we release vertical federated kernel binary classification model and vertical federated random forest model. They have been tested to be more efficient than existing vertical federated learning models in our practice. Besides the novel FL algorithm examples, we also release a machine communication module. The uniform data transfer interface supports transferring widely used data formats between machines. We will maintain this platform by adding more functional modules and algorithm examples. The code is available at https://github.com/fedlearnAI/fedlearn-algo.

We consider the critical problem of distributed learning over data while keeping it private from the computational servers. The state-of-the-art approaches to this problem rely on quantizing the data into a finite field, so that the cryptographic app roaches for secure multiparty computing can then be employed. These approaches, however, can result in substantial accuracy losses due to fixed-point representation of the data and computation overflows. To address these critical issues, we propose a novel algorithm to solve the problem when data is in the analog domain, e.g., the field of real/complex numbers. We characterize the privacy of the data from both information-theoretic and cryptographic perspectives, while establishing a connection between the two notions in the analog domain. More specifically, the well-known connection between the distinguishing security (DS) and the mutual information security (MIS) metrics is extended from the discrete domain to the continues domain. This is then utilized to bound the amount of information about the data leaked to the servers in our protocol, in terms of the DS metric, using well-known results on the capacity of single-input multiple-output (SIMO) channel with correlated noise. It is shown how the proposed framework can be adopted to do computation tasks when data is represented using floating-point numbers. We then show that this leads to a fundamental trade-off between the privacy level of data and accuracy of the result. As an application, we also show how to train a machine learning model while keeping the data as well as the trained model private. Then numerical results are shown for experiments on the MNIST dataset. Furthermore, experimental advantages are shown comparing to fixed-point implementations over finite fields.

This paper investigates capabilities of Privacy-Preserving Deep Learning (PPDL) mechanisms against various forms of privacy attacks. First, we propose to quantitatively measure the trade-off between model accuracy and privacy losses incurred by recon struction, tracing and membership attacks. Second, we formulate reconstruction attacks as solving a noisy system of linear equations, and prove that attacks are guaranteed to be defeated if condition (2) is unfulfilled. Third, based on theoretical analysis, a novel Secret Polarization Network (SPN) is proposed to thwart privacy attacks, which pose serious challenges to existing PPDL methods. Extensive experiments showed that model accuracies are improved on average by 5-20% compared with baseline mechanisms, in regimes where data privacy are satisfactorily protected.
We consider a collaborative learning scenario in which multiple data-owners wish to jointly train a logistic regression model, while keeping their individual datasets private from the other parties. We propose COPML, a fully-decentralized training fr amework that achieves scalability and privacy-protection simultaneously. The key idea of COPML is to securely encode the individual datasets to distribute the computation load effectively across many parties and to perform the training computations as well as the model updates in a distributed manner on the securely encoded data. We provide the privacy analysis of COPML and prove its convergence. Furthermore, we experimentally demonstrate that COPML can achieve significant speedup in training over the benchmark protocols. Our protocol provides strong statistical privacy guarantees against colluding parties (adversaries) with unbounded computational power, while achieving up to $16times$ speedup in the training time against the benchmark protocols.
With the rising use of Machine Learning (ML) and Deep Learning (DL) in various industries, the medical industry is also not far behind. A very simple yet extremely important use case of ML in this industry is for image classification. This is importa nt for doctors to help them detect certain diseases timely, thereby acting as an aid to reduce chances of human judgement error. However, when using automated systems like these, there is a privacy concern as well. Attackers should not be able to get access to the medical records and images of the patients. It is also required that the model be secure, and that the data that is sent to the model and the predictions that are received both should not be revealed to the model in clear text. In this study, we aim to solve these problems in the context of a medical image classification problem of detection of pneumonia by examining chest x-ray images.
As the analytic tools become more powerful, and more data are generated on a daily basis, the issue of data privacy arises. This leads to the study of the design of privacy-preserving machine learning algorithms. Given two objectives, namely, utility maximization and privacy-loss minimization, this work is based on two previously non-intersecting regimes -- Compressive Privacy and multi-kernel method. Compressive Privacy is a privacy framework that employs utility-preserving lossy-encoding scheme to protect the privacy of the data, while multi-kernel method is a kernel based machine learning regime that explores the idea of using multiple kernels for building better predictors. The compressive multi-kernel method proposed consists of two stages -- the compression stage and the multi-kernel stage. The compression stage follows the Compressive Privacy paradigm to provide the desired privacy protection. Each kernel matrix is compressed with a lossy projection matrix derived from the Discriminant Component Analysis (DCA). The multi-kernel stage uses the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) score of each kernel to non-uniformly combine multiple compressive kernels. The proposed method is evaluated on two mobile-sensing datasets -- MHEALTH and HAR -- where activity recognition is defined as utility and person identification is defined as privacy. The results show that the compression regime is successful in privacy preservation as the privacy classification accuracies are almost at the random-guess level in all experiments. On the other hand, the novel SNR-based multi-kernel shows utility classification accuracy improvement upon the state-of-the-art in both datasets. These results indicate a promising direction for research in privacy-preserving machine learning.
