Multi-Party Computation on Machine Learning - Security Boulevard

During my internship this summer, I built a multi-party computation (MPC) tool that implements a 3-party computation protocol for perceptron and support vector machine (SVM) algorithms. MPC enables multiple parties to perform analyses on private datasets without sharing them with each other. I developed a technique that lets three parties obtain the results of machine learning across non-public datasets. It is now possible to perform data analytics on private datasets that was previously impossible due to data privacy constraints. For MPC protocols, a group of parties, each with their own set of secret data, xi, share an input function, f, and each is able to obtain the output of f(x1,…,xn) without learning the private data of other parties.
