1. 1. Variational AutoEncoders and Differential Privacy : balancing data synthesis and privacy constraints

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

   Author : Baptiste Bremond; [2024]
   Keywords : TVAE; Differential privacy; Tabular data; Synthetic data; DP-SGD; TVAE; differentiell integritet; tabelldata; syntetiska data; DP-SGD;
