Secret Sharing

Secret sharing is a cryptographic technique enabling distributed storage and computation of sensitive data without revealing individual components. Current research focuses on improving the efficiency and security of secret sharing within various machine learning contexts, particularly federated learning and multi-party computation, employing techniques like Shamir's secret sharing and function secret sharing to enhance privacy and robustness against attacks (e.g., poisoning, Byzantine failures, and inference attacks). These advancements are crucial for enabling secure and private collaborative machine learning across diverse applications, including healthcare, finance, and IoT, where data privacy is paramount.
