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 evaluates privacy risks in graph neural networks enhanced by large language models (LLMs). Using a five‑stage framework, the authors test six real‑world text‑attributed graph datasets with 42 model configurations and six privacy attack methods across link, label, and membership inference threats. Results show that LLM‑enhanced GNNs are more vulnerable than shallow baselines, with semantic enrichment amplifying exploitable signals, and that differential privacy can reduce risk but at a significant cost to utility.

Kernel-Complexity Edge Sanitization (KCES) is a training‑free, model‑agnostic defense for Graph Neural Networks that identifies and removes edges with high Kernel‑Complexity (KC) scores, which are indicative of structural influence on the graph kernel complexity metric. KCES leverages a theoretical upper bound on GNN test error derived from the graph Gram matrix to compute edge‑specific KC scores, pruning edges that are empirically enriched with adversarial perturbations. The method is computationally efficient, scalable to large graphs, and consistently outperforms representative robust baselines across diverse attack settings without requiring retraining.
