A toolkit for tools and techniques related to the privacy and compliance of AI models.

The [**anonymization**](apt/anonymization/README.md) module contains methods for anonymizing ML model 
training data, so that when a model is retrained on the anonymized data, the model itself will also be 
considered anonymous. This may help exempt the model from different obligations and restrictions 
set out in data protection regulations such as GDPR, CCPA, etc. 

The [**minimization**](apt/minimization/README.md) module contains methods to help adhere to the data 
minimization principle in GDPR for ML models. It enables to reduce the amount of 
personal data needed to perform predictions with a machine learning model, while still enabling the model
to make accurate predictions. This is done by by removing or generalizing some of the input features.
