DeepLeak: Privacy Enhancing Hardening of Model Explanations Against Membership Leakage
arXiv:2601.03429v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Machine learning (ML) explainability is central to algorithmic transparency in high-stakes settings such as predictive diagnostics and loan approval. However, these same domains require rigorous privacy guaranties, creating tension between interpretability and privacy. Although prior work has shown that explanation methods can leak membership information, practitioners still lack systematic guidance on selecting or deploying explanation techniques that balance transparency with privacy. We present DeepLeak, a system to audit and mitigate privacy risks in […]
