Introduces how to perform Transformer-based sentiment analysis on encrypted data using Concrete-ML.

Details

Homomorphic Encryption (FHE) allows computations to be performed directly on encrypted data without decrypting it, making it useful in environments where privacy protection is critical.

This guide explains how to use the Concrete-ML library to let data scientists build machine learning models for FHE environments without any cryptography knowledge.

It presents a workflow that uses Transformer (BERT) to extract text features (hidden representation) and feeds them as input to an XGBoost model to perform sentiment analysis.

The key steps are as follows:

  • Generating text representations using Transformer
  • Training and prediction using XGBoost
  • Converting predictions to work on encrypted data via Concrete-ML
  • Cloud deployment using a client/server protocol
