Data-preserving text redaction for text utterance data

摘要

A hypernym of a word in utterance data may be probabilistically determined. The utterance data may correspond to a spoken query or command. A redacted utterance may be derived by replacing the word with the hypernym. The hypernym may be determined by applying noise to a position in a hierarchical embedding that corresponds to the word. The word may be identified as being potentially sensitive. The hierarchical embedding may be a Hyperbolic embedding that may indicate hierarchical relationships between individual words of a corpus of words, such as “red” is a “color” or “Austin” is in “Texas.” Noise may be applied by obtaining a first value in Euclidean space based on a second value in Hyperbolic space, and obtaining a third value in Hyperbolic space based on the first value in Euclidean space. The second value in Hyperbolic space may correspond to the word.
