联邦学习+贝叶斯差分隐私,提升信贷风险建模的隐私与性能。
FSL-BDP: Federated Survival Learning with Bayesian Differential Privacy for Credit Risk Modeling
- 在不集中数据的前提下,联合建模借款人违约时间轨迹。
- 贝叶斯差分隐私在联邦框架下性能提升7.0%,优于传统方法。
- 适合金融风控、跨机构合作且受严格数据监管的场景。
信贷风险模型是金融机构的关键决策支持工具,但日益严格的隐私法规(如GDPR、CCPA)禁止跨境共享借款人数据,尽管跨机构学习能提升模型效果。传统违约预测存在两大局限:二分类忽视违约时间,将早期违约者(高损失)与晚期违约者(低损失)等同对待;集中式训练违反新兴监管要求。本文提出联邦生存学习框架结合贝叶斯差分隐私(FSL-BDP),在不集中敏感数据的情况下建模违约时间轨迹。该框架提供贝叶斯(数据依赖)差分隐私保障,同时实现机构间联合学习风险动态。在三个真实信贷数据集(LendingClub、SBA、Bondora)上的实验表明,联邦化显著改变隐私机制的有效性:在集中式设置中,经典差分隐私优于贝叶斯差分隐私;但在联邦环境下,后者收益更大(+7.0% 对 +1.4%),接近无隐私状态性能,并在多数参与方中超越经典方法。这一排名反转揭示关键洞见:隐私机制选择应基于目标部署架构评估,而非集中式基准。研究为受监管、多机构环境下的隐私保护决策系统设计提供可操作指导。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Credit risk models are a critical decision-support tool for financial institutions, yet tightening data-protection rules (e.g., GDPR, CCPA) increasingly prohibit cross-border sharing of borrower data, even as these models benefit from cross-institution learning. Traditional default prediction suffers from two limitations: binary classification ignores default timing, treating early defaulters (high loss) equivalently to late defaulters (low loss), and centralized training violates emerging regulatory constraints. We propose a Federated Survival Learning framework with Bayesian Differential Privacy (FSL-BDP) that models time-to-default trajectories without centralizing sensitive data. The framework provides Bayesian (data-dependent) differential privacy (DP) guarantees while enabling institutions to jointly learn risk dynamics. Experiments on three real-world credit datasets (LendingClub, SBA, Bondora) show that federation fundamentally alters the relative effectiveness of privacy mechanisms. While classical DP performs better than Bayesian DP in centralized settings, the latter benefits substantially more from federation (+7.0\% vs +1.4\%), achieving near parity of non-private performance and outperforming classical DP in the majority of participating clients. This ranking reversal yields a key decision-support insight: privacy mechanism selection should be evaluated in the target deployment architecture, rather than centralized benchmarks. These findings provide actionable guidance for practitioners designing privacy-preserving decision support systems in regulated, multi-institutional environments.
