Keep sensitive user data safe and secure without sacrificing the performance and accuracy of your machine learning models.
In Privacy Preserving Machine Learning, you will learn:

  • Privacy considerations in machine learning
  • Differential privacy techniques for machine learning
  • Privacy-preserving synthetic data generation
  • Privacy-enhancing technologies for data mining and database applications
  • Compressive privacy for machine learning

  • Privacy-Preserving Machine Learning is a comprehensive guide to avoiding data breaches in your machine learning projects. You'll get to grips with modern privacy-enhancing techniques such as differential privacy, compressive privacy, and synthetic data generation. Based on years of DARPA-funded cybersecurity research, ML engineers of all skill levels will benefit from incorporating these privacy-preserving practices into their model development. By the time you're done reading, you'll be able to create machine learning systems that preserve user privacy without sacrificing data quality and model performance.

    About the Technology

    Machine learning applications need massive amounts of data. It's up to you to keep the sensitive information in those data sets private and secure. Privacy preservation happens at every point in the ML process, from data collection and ingestion to model development and deployment. This practical book teaches you the skills you'll need to secure your data pipelines end to end.

    About the Book

    Privacy-Preserving Machine Learning explores privacy preservation techniques through real-world use cases in facial recognition, cloud data storage, and more. You'll learn about practical implementations you can deploy now, future privacy challenges, and how to adapt existing technologies to your needs. Your new skills build towards a complete security data platform project you'll develop in the final chapter.

    What's Inside

  • Differential and compressive privacy techniques
  • Privacy for frequency or mean estimation, naive Bayes classifier, and deep learning
  • Privacy-preserving synthetic data generation
  • Enhanced privacy for data mining and database applications

  • About the Reader

    For machine learning engineers and developers. Examples in Python and Java.
