arXiv:2606.05129v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Preserving data privacy is an important topic in structural data management and data mining. However, the issue of privacy leakage in distributed causal structure learning is a persistent challenge, especially in cases where data transmission and computation are required. In this paper, we propose a method based on fully homomorphic encryption (FHE) that performs calculations on ciphertexts, keeping data encrypted in transition and computation. Nevertheless, adopting FHE to causal structure learning is challenging due to the high computation co
The increasing emphasis on data privacy regulations and the growing capabilities of Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE) converge to make its application in complex AI tasks like causal structure learning a pressing area of research.
This development addresses a critical trade-off between privacy and the utility of data in AI, enabling advanced analytics on sensitive information without direct exposure, which is crucial for regulated industries and national security.
The ability to perform complex computations on encrypted data fundamentally alters how organizations can leverage distributed datasets for AI, reducing privacy risks while expanding analytical possibilities.
