• Authors: Kuan-Chieh Wang, Yan Fu, Ke Li, Ashish Khisti, Richard Zemel, Alireza Makhzani
• Abstract summary: In model inversion attacks, a malicious user attempts to recover the private dataset used to train a supervised neural network. A successful model inversion attack should generate realistic and diverse samples that accurately describe each of the classes in the private dataset. In this work, we provide a probabilistic interpretation of model inversion attacks, and formulate a variational objective that accounts for both diversity and accuracy.

• Abstract: Given the ubiquity of deep neural networks, it is important that these models do not reveal information about sensitive data that they have been trained on. In model inversion attacks, a malicious user attempts to recover the private dataset used to train a supervised neural network. A successful model inversion attack should generate realistic and diverse samples that accurately describe each of the classes in the private dataset. In this work, we provide a probabilistic interpretation of model inversion attacks, and formulate a variational objective that accounts for both diversity and accuracy. In order to optimize this variational objective, we choose a variational family defined in the code space of a deep generative model, trained on a public auxiliary dataset that shares some structural similarity with the target dataset. Empirically, our method substantially improves performance in terms of target attack accuracy, sample realism, and diversity on datasets of faces and chest X-ray images.

  In many application domains such as medicine, information retrieval, cybersecurity, social media, etc., datasets used for inducing classification models often have an unequal distribution of the instances of each class. This situation, known as imbalanced data classification, causes low predictive performance for the minority class examples. Oversampling and undersampling techniques are well-known strategies to deal with this problem by balancing the number of examples of each class.

  Property Inference Attacks aim to infer from a given model properties about the training dataset seemingly unrelated to the model's primary goal. This paper investigates the influence of the target model's complexity on the accuracy of this type of attack. Our findings reveal that the risk of a privacy breach is present independently of the target model's complexity.

  In this paper, we target the problem of generating effective ensembles of neural networks by encouraging diversity in prediction. We explicitly optimize a diversity inducing adversarial loss for learning latent variables and thereby obtain diversity in the output predictions necessary for modeling multi-modal data. Compared to the most competitive baselines, we show significant improvements in classification accuracy, under a shift in the data distribution.
