Zero-Knowledge Proof system for Transformer model verification with Fisher Information analysis

// DESCRIPTION

Enabling verifiable AI inference through zero-knowledge proofs, ensuring model outputs are trustworthy without revealing model weights.

Problem Statement

How can we prove that a model produced a specific output without revealing the model itself?

Approach

  • Circuit Design: zk-SNARK circuits for transformer operations
  • Layer-wise Proofs: Generate proofs for each layer independently
  • Fisher Analysis: Identify which layers are most important to verify
  • Selective Verification: Prove critical layers, trust others

Components

Model → Layer Analysis → Circuit Generation → Proof → Verification
         (Fisher Info)    (zk-SNARK)          (Prover)  (Verifier)

Progress

  • 8000+ lines of code
  • Core infrastructure complete
  • Fisher analysis implemented
  • Visualization tools ready

// HIGHLIGHTS

  • 8000+ LOC research codebase
  • Novel selective verification approach
  • Extensive documentation (EN/CN)
