Abstract
The learner's ability to generate a hypothesis that closely approximates the
target function is crucial in machine learning. Achieving this requires
sufficient data; however, unauthorized access by an eavesdropping learner can
lead to security risks. Thus, it is important to ensure the performance of the
"authorized" learner by limiting the quality of the training data accessible to
eavesdroppers. Unlike previous studies focusing on encryption or access
controls, we provide a theorem to ensure superior learning outcomes exclusively
for the authorized learner with quantum label encoding. In this context, we use
the probably-approximately-correct (PAC) learning framework and introduce the
concept of learning probability to quantitatively assess learner performance.
Our theorem allows the condition that, given a training dataset, an authorized
learner is guaranteed to achieve a certain quality of learning outcome, while
eavesdroppers are not. Notably, this condition can be constructed based only on
the authorized-learning-only measurable quantities of the training data, i.e.,
its size and noise degree. We validate our theoretical proofs and predictions
through convolutional neural networks (CNNs) image classification learning.
