+Module providing ML anonymization.
+
+This 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 module contains methods that enable anonymizing training datasets in a manner that
+is tailored to and guided by an existing, trained ML model. It uses the existing model's
+predictions on the training data to train a second, anonymizer model, that eventually determines
+the generalizations that will be applied to the training data. For more information about the
+method see: https://arxiv.org/abs/2007.13086
+
+Once the anonymized training data is returned, it can be used to retrain the model.
