Abstract

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for privacy-sensitive training of a neural network. In one aspect, a system comprises a central memory configured to store current values of a set of neural network parameters and one or more computers that are configured to implement a plurality of worker computing units, where each worker computing unit is configured to repeatedly perform operations comprising obtaining current values of the set of neural network parameters from the central memory, sampling a batch of network inputs from a set of training data, determining a respective gradient corresponding to each network input, determining an aggregated gradient based on the gradients, identifying a subset of a set of gradient values as target values, generating a noisy gradient by combining random noise with the target gradient values, and updating the current values of the set of neural network parameters.
