Mitigating Membership Inference in Deep Learning Applications with High Dimensional Genomic Data
Chonghao Zhang, Luca Bonomi · 2022 IEEE 10th International Conference on Healthcare Informatics (ICHI) · 2022
The use of deep learning techniques in medical applications holds great promises for advancing health care. However, there are growing privacy concerns regarding what information about individual data contributors (i.e., patients in the training set) these deep models may reveal when shared with external users. In this work, we first investigate the membership privacy risks in sharing deep learning models for cancer genomics tasks, and then study the applicability of privacy-protecting strategies for mitigating these privacy risks.
