In this context, patching flaws as they are discovered is not acceptable and it becomes necessary to follow a more disciplined approach based on theoretical guarantees in order to embed privacy into the system\u2019s design.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Machine Learning based approaches owe their success, in large part, to the abundance of data collected from a wide range of sources. Much of this data contains private information about individuals or institutions, which needs to be protected from<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> leakage or<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> improper disclosure. In addition, with staggering costs for R&amp;D and training, machine learning models have become the cornerstone of many products and services over the past few years, making them among the most valuable assets of many companies. Machine learning models therefore need to be equipped with efficient mechanisms to prevent them from getting stolen or emulated, thus protecting the intellectual property of their owners.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Team<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Youcef Korichi (PhD Student)<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Nadia Tawbi (Professor)<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">S\u00e9bastien Gambs (Professor)<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jos\u00e9e Desharnais (Professor)<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Datasets used for experiments :<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Adult Data Set (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/archive.ics.uci.edu\/ml\/datasets\/adult\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Link<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).
