A ZKML framework combines zero-knowledge proofs with machine learning models to enable verifiable and private computation of AI inferences. This system allows a party to prove that a machine learning model executed correctly on specific inputs without revealing the inputs or the model parameters themselves. It addresses critical concerns regarding data privacy, model intellectual property, and the trustworthiness of AI outputs. Such frameworks are essential for deploying confidential AI applications on public blockchains.
Context
A central discussion point for ZKML frameworks involves balancing computational efficiency with the cryptographic overhead required for zero-knowledge proofs. The challenge lies in optimizing these systems to be practical for real-world machine learning applications, which often involve large datasets and sophisticated models. Future developments will likely focus on specialized hardware acceleration and advanced proof systems to reduce latency and resource consumption, broadening their applicability in decentralized AI.
This paper provides the first comprehensive categorization of Zero-Knowledge Machine Learning (ZKML), offering a critical framework to advance privacy-preserving AI and model integrity.
