| Challenge: | Graph convolutional networks (GCNs) are powerful for representation learning on documents that naturally occur as graphs, but sensitive personal information is prone to privacy leaks. |
| Approach: | They propose a method that adapts differentially-private gradient-based training to GCNs and conduct experiments using two optimizers on five NLP datasets in two languages. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method improves baseline privacy bounds by 2.7 while retaining competitive F1 scores while providing strong privacy guarantees. |
