PrivacyXray: Detecting Privacy Breaches in LLMs through Semantic Consistency and Probability Certainty

Jinwen He, Yiyang Lu, Zijin Lin et al.

Large Language Models (LLMs) are widely used in sensitive domains, including healthcare, finance, and legal services, raising concerns about potential private information leaks during inference. Privacy extraction attacks, such as jailbreaking, expose vulnerabilities in LLMs by crafting inputs that force the models to output sensitive information. However, these attacks cannot verify whether the extracted private information is accurate, as no public datasets exist for cross-validation, leaving a critical gap in private information detection during inference. To address this, we propose PrivacyXray, a novel framework detecting privacy breaches by analyzing LLM inner states. Our analysis reveals that LLMs exhibit higher semantic coherence and probabilistic certainty when generating correct private outputs. Based on this, PrivacyXray detects privacy breaches using four metrics: intra-layer and inter-layer semantic similarity, token-level and sentence-level probability distributions. PrivacyXray addresses critical challenges in private information detection by overcoming the lack of open-source private datasets and eliminating reliance on external data for validation. It achieves this through the synthesis of realistic private data and a detection mechanism based on the inner states of LLMs. Experiments show that PrivacyXray achieves consistent performance, with an average accuracy of 92.69% across five LLMs. Compared to state-of-the-art methods, PrivacyXray achieves significant improvements, with an average accuracy increase of 20.06%, highlighting its stability and practical utility in real-world applications.

Sparse Anatomical Prompt Semi-Supervised Learning with Masked Image Modeling for CBCT Tooth Segmentation

Pengyu Dai, Yafei Ou, Yuqiao Yang et al.

Accurate tooth identification and segmentation in Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) dental images can significantly enhance the efficiency and precision of manual diagnoses performed by dentists. However, existing segmentation methods are mainly developed based on large data volumes training, on which their annotations are extremely time-consuming. Meanwhile, the teeth of each class in CBCT dental images being closely positioned, coupled with subtle inter-class differences, gives rise to the challenge of indistinct boundaries when training model with limited data. To address these challenges, this study aims to propose a tasked-oriented Masked Auto-Encoder paradigm to effectively utilize large amounts of unlabeled data to achieve accurate tooth segmentation with limited labeled data. Specifically, we first construct a self-supervised pre-training framework of masked auto encoder to efficiently utilize unlabeled data to enhance the network performance. Subsequently, we introduce a sparse masked prompt mechanism based on graph attention to incorporate boundary information of the teeth, aiding the network in learning the anatomical structural features of teeth. To the best of our knowledge, we are pioneering the integration of the mask pre-training paradigm into the CBCT tooth segmentation task. Extensive experiments demonstrate both the feasibility of our proposed method and the potential of the boundary prompt mechanism.
