Machine Unlearning with SISA

Lucas Bourtoule, Varun Chandrasekaran, Christopher Choquette-Choo, Hengrui Jia, Adelin Travers, Baiwu Zhang, David Lie, Nicolas Papernot

This repository contains the core code used in the SISA experiments of our Machine Unlearning paper along with some example scripts.

You can start runing experiments by having a look at the readme in the purchase example folder at example-scripts/purchase-sharding.

sisa.py is the script that trains a given shard. It should be run as many times as the number of shards.
