The paper introduces a style-aware paraphrasing method for text anonymization that leverages pretrained large language models to build compact stylistic profiles from minimal samples and rewrite text to suppress identifiable style markers while preserving meaning. It demonstrates that this approach reduces authorship attribution F1 scores by 60‑70% on blog and review datasets, outperforming both differential privacy‑based and non‑DP baselines, and maintains content quality and readability.

The paper "Evaluating Style-Personalized Text Generation: Challenges and Directions" examines the difficulties of assessing text that is tailored to individual users’ styles. It critiques common metrics such as BLEU, embeddings, and LLM-as-judges, and introduces a style discrimination benchmark covering domain discrimination, authorship attribution, and LLM-generated personalized versus non-personalized discrimination across eight writing tasks. The study finds that ensembles of diverse evaluation metrics outperform single-evaluator approaches and offers guidance for reliable assessment of style-personalized generation.

SpeechLLMs used in professional settings often undergo domain customisation through prompts or fine‑tuning, which can inadvertently cause the model to transcribe phonetically similar words from its context or training data, leaking private information. The authors systematically investigate this overlooked privacy risk, creating benchmarks to measure leakage rates for both prompting and fine‑tuning, and find that both mechanisms cause measurable leakage that compounds when combined. They evaluate a prompt‑level mitigation strategy and analyse the accuracy‑leakage trade‑off, concluding that fine‑tuning without context prompts offers the best balance between performance and privacy.
HyperStyler is a new architecture for low-resource authorship style transfer that separates style selection from style realization. It uses a style navigator to predict style coordinates from source context and target-author references, and a style hypernetwork to apply these coordinates through dynamic parameter modulation. Experiments on Reddit, Blog, and News datasets show that HyperStyler outperforms previous methods, including LLM-based approaches, while adding only 2.4% more parameters than T5-large and running 1.8× faster at inference.
The paper introduces a two‑stage speech anonymization framework that preserves both linguistic content and acoustic identity. It replaces personally identifiable information using a generative editing model and applies a flow‑matching anonymization technique (F3‑VA) to create diverse, distinct anonymized speakers. The authors evaluate privacy with speaker verification metrics and utility by training ASR, TTS, and SER models from scratch, showing stronger privacy protection with minimal utility loss compared to existing baselines.
The paper introduces the privacy‑HSD trade‑off, highlighting that automatic hate speech detection systems can inadvertently compromise user privacy by encoding authorship. It demonstrates that such systems may achieve high performance at the expense of privacy, and proposes a new domain‑specific technique, AgnoSpeech, alongside other text privatization methods to balance these competing goals. The authors benchmark these methods, showing that while challenging, it is feasible to protect privacy without sacrificing hate‑speech detection effectiveness.
