Improving Privacy Risk Detection with Sequence Labelling and Web Search
Sequence labelling assigns risk to text spans based on token classification, while web search methods estimate re-identification risk by querying search engines.
How Text Span Analysis Enhances Data Privacy
Span classification enriches privacy risk prediction by using text content and LLM features, while perturbation techniques assess the combined risk of PII spans.
5 Ways to Measure Privacy Risks in Text Data
This section introduces 5 methods to evaluate re-identification risks in text, including LLM probabilities, span classification, perturbations, sequence labeling, and web search.
Performance Analysis of the Privacy-Centric NER Model
The privacy-oriented entity recognizer shows strong span detection but faces label alignment issues, notably within complex categories like MISC, due to dataset variability and semantic ambiguity.
How to Develop a Privacy-First Entity Recognition System
The system improves traditional NER for PII detection by leveraging Wikidata to build DEM and MISC gazetteers, creating a silver-labeled corpus, and fine-tuning a RoBERTa model for privacy-focused span recognition.
Datasets for Evaluating Text Sanitization Techniques
The study uses two datasets: the Text Anonymization Benchmark (TAB) corpus of court cases rich in PII annotations, and Wikipedia biographies annotated for text anonymization without confidential attributes. Both datasets...
Privacy-Preserving Data Publishing: k-Anonymity, t-Plausibility, and More
PPDP models like k-anonymity and differential privacy offer frameworks for masking or transforming text data to protect personal information. However, while differential privacy suits synthetic text creation, it often struggles...
What Is Text Sanitization? Definitions, Privacy Laws, and NLP Approaches
Text sanitization masks personal data in text documents to comply with privacy laws like GDPR. It differs from anonymization and pseudonymization, relying heavily on NLP techniques like named entity recognition...
