Abstract
In this work, we tackle the question of how to systematically benchmark task-agnostic decoupling methods for privacy-preserving machine learning (ML). Sharing datasets that include sensitive information often triggers privacy concerns, necessitating robust decoupling methods to separate sensitive and non-sensitive attributes. Despite the development of numerous decoupling techniques, a standard benchmark for systematically comparing these methods remains absent. Our framework integrates various decoupling techniques along with synthetic data generation and evaluation protocols within a unified system. Using our framework, we benchmark various decoupling techniques and evaluating their privacy-utility trade-offs. Finally, we release our source code, pre-trained models, datasets of decoupled representations to foster research in this area.
