• Title: Sotto Voce: Federated Speech Recognition with Differential Privacy Guarantees
• Authors: Michael Shoemate and Kevin Jett and Ethan Cowan and Sean Colbath and James Honaker and Prasanna Muthukumar
• Abstract summary: Speech data is expensive to collect, and incredibly sensitive to its sources. It is often the case that organizations independently collect small datasets for their own use, but often these are not performant for the demands of machine learning. Organizations could pool these datasets together and jointly build a strong ASR system; sharing data in the clear, however, comes with tremendous risk, in terms of intellectual property loss as well as loss of privacy of the individuals who exist in the dataset.

• Abstract: Speech data is expensive to collect, and incredibly sensitive to its sources. It is often the case that organizations independently collect small datasets for their own use, but often these are not performant for the demands of machine learning. Organizations could pool these datasets together and jointly build a strong ASR system; sharing data in the clear, however, comes with tremendous risk, in terms of intellectual property loss as well as loss of privacy of the individuals who exist in the dataset. In this paper, we offer a potential solution for learning an ML model across multiple organizations where we can provide mathematical guarantees limiting privacy loss. We use a Federated Learning approach built on a strong foundation of Differential Privacy techniques. We apply these to a senone classification prototype and demonstrate that the model improves with the addition of private data while still respecting privacy.

  Federated instruction tuning (FedIT) is a promising solution, by consolidating collaborative training across multiple data owners. FedIT encounters limitations such as scarcity of instructional data and risk of exposure to training data extraction attacks. We propose FewFedPIT, designed to simultaneously enhance privacy protection and model performance of federated few-shot learning.

  Data with privacy concerns comes with stringent regulations that frequently prohibited data access and data sharing. Overcoming these obstacles is key for technological progress in many real-world application scenarios that involve privacy sensitive data. Differentially private (DP) data publishing provides a compelling solution, where only a sanitized form of the data is publicly released.

  We question whether the use of large Web-scraped datasets should be viewed as differential-privacy-preserving. We caution that publicizing these models pretrained on Web data as "private" could lead to harm and erode the public's trust in differential privacy as a meaningful definition of privacy. We conclude by discussing potential paths forward for the field of private learning, as public pretraining becomes more popular and powerful.

We perform thorough experiments indicating that our synthetic datasets do not leak information from our original data and are of high language quality.
