Homomorphically Encrypted Deep Learning Library

The goal of this library is to give the user the ability to efficiently train Deep Learning models in a homomorphically encrypted state without needing to be an expert in either. Furthermore, by understanding the characteristics of both Deep Learning and Homomorphic Encryption, we hope to find very performant combinations of the two. See notebooks folder for tutorials on how to use the library.

Setup

Prerequisites

# Get dependencies ready
pip install -r requirements.txt
# install the lib locally
python setup.py install

Installation

The recommended method is using Docker (works on all major operating systems).

For Docker Users

Install Docker from its website. For macOS users with Homebrew installed, use brew cask install docker. Once installed, launch the Docker application. Ensure that docker is installed and running properly by checking the version: docker -v.

For Anaconda Users

bash install_for_anaconda_users.sh

Note: If you are having trouble with installation, after you run the above script, while you try to import Syft in your Jupyter notebook, try this:

source activate openmined  # activate your env, if you haven't already
pip install ipykernel
python -m ipykernel install --user --name=openmined
Windows
conda install -c conda-forge gmpy2
pip install -r requirements.txt
python setup.py install

Usage

Start

Then, run:

git clone https://github.com/OpenMined/PySyft.git
cd PySyft
make run

If you want create a local Docker with Jupyter:

docker build -f Development-Dockerfile -t "pysyft" .
make custom docker=pysyft

Tests

cd PySyft
make test
