The paper "Privacy Leakage on DNNs: A Survey of Model Inversion Attacks and Defenses" provides a comprehensive review of model inversion (MI) attacks that exploit trained deep neural networks to reconstruct private training data. It traces the evolution of MI from early machine‑learning contexts to recent DNN‑based attacks across various modalities and learning tasks, offering a detailed taxonomy and comparative analysis of both attacks and defenses. The authors also present an open‑source toolbox on GitHub to support further research in this area.

The paper investigates provable privacy attacks on trained 2‑layer ReLU neural networks, specifically membership inference and data reconstruction. It demonstrates that the implicit bias of such networks can be leveraged to identify, with high probability, whether a given point was part of the training set in high‑dimensional, nearly orthogonal settings, and to construct a finite set containing a constant fraction of training points in a univariate setting. This work claims to be the first to reveal provable vulnerabilities arising from implicit bias in shallow neural networks.
