arXiv:2606. 26373v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Dense embeddings power semantic search and retrieval-augmented generation, but embedding-inversion attacks can reconstruct source text from a vector: when a vector database leaks, the documents behind it leak too.

arXiv:2606. 14210v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly deployed in privacy-sensitive domains, where users must balance the risk of data exposure through external APIs against the high computational cost of local deployment.

arXiv:2606. 18312v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Federated learning allows multiple clients to jointly train a shared model by sending gradient updates to a central server while keeping raw inputs local.

arXiv:2607. 29221v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We address the challenge of securely and efficiently outsourcing AI computations from a trusted but computationally weak client to an untrusted but powerful server, in the setting where the client holds both the input and the model, and the server must learn neither.

arXiv:2412. 12640v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: The increasing demand for data privacy, alongside the benefits of aggregating data from networked devices, has catalyzed the emergence of federated learning (FL).
By Rui Zhang, Ka-Ho Chow
arXiv:2405. 16361v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: To protect privacy in regulated domains such as healthcare and finance, model owners may allow only remote API access while keeping both the training data and model parameters private.

arXiv:2606. 05004v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: With the widespread deployment of public large language models (LLMs) such as ChatGPT, protecting user prompt privacy has become an increasingly critical issue.
