Abstract: The advent of data-driven technologies and artificial intelligence (AI) has led to an increasing demand for the sharing and analysing sensitive information. However, the paramount concern of preserving individual privacy poses a significant challenge. Hence, an algorithm named differential privacy in data sharing for AI (PrivShareAI) has been utilised. The objective is to enable secure and privacy-preserving data sharing in AI by implementing differential privacy measures and maintaining a balance between utility and privacy. The data-sharing paradigm uses sensitivity limits, noise-enhanced queries, and a universal, secure architecture enabled by a trusted server to encourage shared learning while maintaining maximum privacy. The proposed model's efficiency is evaluated with baseline comparison studies with the following metrics: privacy guarantee, accuracy on varying ε parameters, privacy-utility trade-off, and privacy loss and accuracy measure.
Keywords: artificial intelligence; differential privacy; data sharing; accuracy; Gaussian noise; gradients; privacy guarantee.
