Trust-Aware Adaptive Disclosure for Inference Privacy Preservation in Multi-Agent Networks
[cs.MA] Autorzy: Puspanjali Ghoshal, Tobias J. Oechtering
Agent based systems are increasingly deployed in information critical systems including healthcare management systems, and smart grids. In this paper, we consider a multi-agent system where each agent has a latent goal that needs to be kept hidden from observing adversaries. More specifically, this paper studies privacy-preserving consensus in networked multi-agent systems under goal inference attacks. We propose a Trust-Aware Privacy Control framework that adapts message disclosure based on the dynamic trust relationships between agents. The proposed method controls information release using a trust-dependent stochastic policy. This enables a tradeoff between consensus performance and privacy preservation. Experiments demonstrate that the proposed method reduces adversarial goal inference accuracy compared to representative baselines, while maintaining competitive consensus utility, th…
