2. Keep sensitive user data safe and
secure, without sacrificing the
accuracy of your machine learning
models. From search histories to
medical records, many machine
learning systems are trained on
personal and sensitive data. It’s an
ongoing challenge to keep the
private details of users secure
throughout the ML process without
adversely affecting the performance
of your models.

3. Privacy Preserving Machine Learning
is a comprehensive introduction to
data privacy in machine learning.
Based on years of DARPA-funded
cybersecurity research, the book is
filled with lightbulb moments that
will change the way you think about
algorithm design. You’ll learn how to
apply privacy-enhancing techniques
to common machine learning tasks,
and experiment with source code
fresh from the latest academic
papers.

4. This book is a practical guide to
keeping ML data anonymous and
secure. You’ll learn the core
principles behind different privacy
preservation technologies, and
how to put theory into practice for
your own machine learning. By the
time you’re done, you’ll be able to
create machine learning systems
that preserve user privacy without
sacrificing data quality and model
performance.
