  3. 2. Towards Building Privacy-Preserving Language Models: Challenges and Insights in Adapting PrivGAN for Generation of Synthetic Clinical Text

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för data- och systemvetenskap

    Author : Atena Nazem; [2023]
    Keywords : Generative Adversarial Networks; privacy-preserving language models; clinical text data; reinforcement learning; synthetic data;

    Abstract : The growing development of artificial intelligence (AI), particularly neural networks, is transforming applications of AI in healthcare, yet it raises significant privacy concerns due to potential data leakage. As neural networks memorise training data, they may inadvertently expose sensitive clinical data to privacy breaches, which can engender serious repercussions like identity theft, fraud, and harmful medical errors.
