Quantum machine learning (QML) can complement the growing trend of using learned models for a myriad of classification tasks, from image recognition to natural speech processing. A quantum advantage arises due to the intractability of quantum operations on a classical computer. Many datasets used in machine learning are crowd sourced or contain some private information. To the best of our knowledge, no current QML models are equipped with privacy-preserving features, which raises concerns as it is paramount that models do not expose sensitive information. Thus, privacy-preserving algorithms need to be implemented with QML. One solution is to make the machine learning algorithm differentially private, meaning the effect of a single data point on the training dataset is minimized. Differentially private machine learning models have been investigated, but differential privacy has yet to be studied in the context of QML. In this study, we develop a hybrid quantum-classical model that is trained to preserve privacy using differentially private optimization algorithm. This marks the first proof-of-principle demonstration of privacy-preserving QML. The experiments demonstrate that differentially private QML can protect user-sensitive information without diminishing model accuracy. Although the quantum model is simulated and tested on a classical computer, it demonstrates potential to be efficiently implemented on near-term quantum devices (noisy intermediate-scale quantum [NISQ]). The approachs success is illustrated via the classification of spatially classed two-dimensional datasets and a binary MNIST classification. This implementation of privacy-preserving QML will ensure confidentiality and accurate learning on NISQ technology.

Distributed training across several quantum computers could significantly improve the training time and if we could share the learned model, not the data, it could potentially improve the data privacy as the training would happen where the data is lo cated. However, to the best of our knowledge, no work has been done in quantum machine learning (QML) in federation setting yet. In this work, we present the federated training on hybrid quantum-classical machine learning models although our framework could be generalized to pure quantum machine learning model. Specifically, we consider the quantum neural network (QNN) coupled with classical pre-trained convolutional model. Our distributed federated learning scheme demonstrated almost the same level of trained model accuracies and yet significantly faster distributed training. It demonstrates a promising future research direction for scaling and privacy aspects.
Machine learning (ML) is increasingly being adopted in a wide variety of application domains. Usually, a well-performing ML model, especially, emerging deep neural network model, relies on a large volume of training data and high-powered computationa l resources. The need for a vast volume of available data raises serious privacy concerns because of the risk of leakage of highly privacy-sensitive information and the evolving regulatory environments that increasingly restrict access to and use of privacy-sensitive data. Furthermore, a trained ML model may also be vulnerable to adversarial attacks such as membership/property inference attacks and model inversion attacks. Hence, well-designed privacy-preserving ML (PPML) solutions are crucial and have attracted increasing research interest from academia and industry. More and more efforts of PPML are proposed via integrating privacy-preserving techniques into ML algorithms, fusing privacy-preserving approaches into ML pipeline, or designing various privacy-preserving architectures for existing ML systems. In particular, existing PPML arts cross-cut ML, system, security, and privacy; hence, there is a critical need to understand state-of-art studies, related challenges, and a roadmap for future research. This paper systematically reviews and summarizes existing privacy-preserving approaches and proposes a PGU model to guide evaluation for various PPML solutions through elaborately decomposing their privacy-preserving functionalities. The PGU model is designed as the triad of Phase, Guarantee, and technical Utility. Furthermore, we also discuss the unique characteristics and challenges of PPML and outline possible directions of future work that benefit a wide range of research communities among ML, distributed systems, security, and privacy areas.
Federated learning (FL) is a training paradigm where the clients collaboratively learn models by repeatedly sharing information without compromising much on the privacy of their local sensitive data. In this paper, we introduce federated $f$-differen tial privacy, a new notion specifically tailored to the federated setting, based on the framework of Gaussian differential privacy. Federated $f$-differential privacy operates on record level: it provides the privacy guarantee on each individual record of one clients data against adversaries. We then propose a generic private federated learning framework {PriFedSync} that accommodates a large family of state-of-the-art FL algorithms, which provably achieves federated $f$-differential privacy. Finally, we empirically demonstrate the trade-off between privacy guarantee and prediction performance for models trained by {PriFedSync} in computer vision tasks.
When it comes to large-scale multi-agent systems with a diverse set of agents, traditional differential privacy (DP) mechanisms are ill-matched because they consider a very broad class of adversaries, and they protect all users, independent of their characteristics, by the same guarantee. Achieving a meaningful privacy leads to pronounced reduction in solution quality. Such assumptions are unnecessary in many real-world applications for three key reasons: (i) users might be willing to disclose less sensitive information (e.g., city of residence, but not exact location), (ii) the attacker might posses auxiliary information (e.g., city of residence in a mobility-on-demand system, or reviewer expertise in a paper assignment problem), and (iii) domain characteristics might exclude a subset of solutions (an expert on auctions would not be assigned to review a robotics paper, thus there is no need for indistinguishably between reviewers on different fields). We introduce Piecewise Local Differential Privacy (PLDP), a privacy model designed to protect the utility function in applications where the attacker possesses additional information on the characteristics of the utility space. PLDP enables a high degree of privacy, while being applicable to real-world, unboundedly large settings. Moreover, we propose PALMA, a privacy-preserving heuristic for maximum-weight matching. We evaluate PALMA in a vehicle-passenger matching scenario using real data and demonstrate that it provides strong privacy, $varepsilon leq 3$ and a median of $varepsilon = 0.44$, and high quality matchings ($10.8%$ worse than the non-private optimal).
The high demand of artificial intelligence services at the edges that also preserve data privacy has pushed the research on novel machine learning paradigms that fit those requirements. Federated learning has the ambition to protect data privacy thro ugh distributed learning methods that keep the data in their data silos. Likewise, differential privacy attains to improve the protection of data privacy by measuring the privacy loss in the communication among the elements of federated learning. The prospective matching of federated learning and differential privacy to the challenges of data privacy protection has caused the release of several software tools that support their functionalities, but they lack of the needed unified vision for those techniques, and a methodological workflow that support their use. Hence, we present the Sherpa.ai Federated Learning framework that is built upon an holistic view of federated learning and differential privacy. It results from the study of how to adapt the machine learning paradigm to federated learning, and the definition of methodological guidelines for developing artificial intelligence services based on federated learning and differential privacy. We show how to follow the methodological guidelines with the Sherpa.ai Federated Learning framework by means of a classification and a regression use cases.
