Privacy-utility equilibrium data generation based on Wasserstein generative adversarial networks.

To solve the contradictory problem of local data sharing and privacy protection, this paper presented the models and algorithms for privacy-utility equilibrium data generation based on Wasserstein generative adversarial networks. First, we introduce the expected estimation error between the discriminant probability of real data and generated data into Wasserstein generative adversarial networks, and we formally construct a basic mathematical model of privacy-utility equilibrium data generation based on computationally indistinguishable. Second, we construct the basic model and the basic algorithm of privacy-utility equilibrium data generation based on Wasserstein generative adversarial networks according to the constructed basic mathematical model, and our theoretical analysis results show that the basic algorithm can achieve the equilibrium between local data sharing and privacy protection. Third, according to the constructed basic model, we construct the federated model and the federated algorithm of privacy-utility equilibrium data generation based on Wasserstein generative adversarial networks using the serialized training method of federated learning, and our theoretical analysis results also show that the federated algorithm can achieve the equilibrium between local data sharing and privacy protection in a distributed environment. Finally, our experimental results show that the proposed algorithms can achieve the equilibrium between local data sharing and privacy protection in this paper. Therefore, the constructed basic mathematical model provides a theoretical basis of achieving the equilibrium between local data sharing and privacy protection. At the same time, the proposed basic model and the federated model of privacy-utility equilibrium data generation provide a concrete method of achieving the equilibrium between local data sharing and privacy protection in centralized and distributed environment respectively.
