Abstract

Methods, systems and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage medium, for machine unlearning. In one aspect a method includes receiving a request to remove a client dataset from a machine learning model, the model being associated with noise sensitivities determined during training of the model on respective client datasets including the client; and in response to receiving the request: identifying, from stored noise sensitivities of the client, a most recent training iteration that produced a noise sensitivity that is below a predetermined threshold that is based on a noise standard deviation and predefined target privacy parameters; updating parameters of the model, comprising adding noise to model parameters for the most recent training iteration; and performing subsequent iterations of training of the model, wherein the model is initialized with the updated parameters and the subsequent iterations train the model on datasets excluding the dataset owned by the client.
