Method and data processing system for remotely detecting tampering of a machine learning model

Abstract

A method and data processing system for detecting tampering of a machine learning model is provided. The method includes training a machine learning model. During a training operating period, a plurality of input values is provided to the machine learning model. In response to a predetermined invalid input value, the machine learning model is trained that a predetermined output value will be expected. The model is verified that it has not been tampered with by inputting the predetermined invalid input value during an inference operating period. If the expected output value is provided by the machine learning model in response to the predetermined input value, then the machine learning model has not been tampered with. If the expected output value is not provided, then the machine learning model has been tampered with. The method may be implemented using the data processing system.
