"abstract": "Membership inference attacks are designed to determine, using black box access to trained models, whether a particular example was used in training or not. Membership inference can be formalized as a hypothesis testing problem. The most effective existing attacks estimate the distribution of some test statistic (usually the model's confidence on the true label) on points that were (and were not) used in training by training many \\emph{shadow models}---i.e. models of the same architecture as the model being attacked, trained on a random subsample of data. While effective, these attacks are extremely computationally expensive, especially when the model under attack is large. \\footnotetext[0]{Martin and Shuai are the lead authors, and other authors are ordered alphabetically. {maberlop,shuat}@amazon.com}We introduce a new class of attacks based on performing quantile regression on the distribution of confidence scores induced by the model under attack on points that are not used in training. We show that our method is competitive with state-of-the-art shadow model attacks, while requiring substantially less compute because our attack requires training only a single model. Moreover, unlike shadow model attacks, our proposed attack does not require any knowledge of the architecture of the model under attack and is therefore truly ``black-box\". We show the efficacy of this approach in an extensive series of experiments on various datasets and model architectures. Our code is available at \\href{https://github.com/amazon-science/quantile-mia}{github.com/amazon-science/quantile-mia.}"
