EM-MIAs: アンサンブルモデリングによる大規模言語モデルへのメンバーシップ推論攻撃の強化

原文アブストラクト

With the widespread application of large language models (LLM), concerns about the privacy leakage of model training data have increasingly become a focus. Membership Inference Attacks (MIAs) have emerged as a critical tool for evaluating the privacy risks associated with these models. Although existing attack methods, such as LOSS, Reference-based, min-k, and zlib, perform well in certain scenarios, their effectiveness on large pre-trained language models often approaches random guessing, particularly in the context of large-scale datasets and single-epoch training. To address this issue, this paper proposes a novel ensemble attack method that integrates several existing MIAs techniques (LOSS, Reference-based, min-k, zlib) into an XGBoost-based model to enhance overall attack performance (EM-MIAs). Experimental results demonstrate that the ensemble model significantly improves both AUC-ROC and accuracy compared to individual attack methods across various large language models and datasets. This indicates that by combining the strengths of different methods, we can more effectively identify members of the model's training data, thereby providing a more robust tool for evaluating the privacy risks of LLM. This study offers new directions for further research in the field of LLM privacy protection and underscores the necessity of developing more powerful privacy auditing methods.
