# FedPII Dataset
This repository contains the dataset for the paper [Simple Yet Effective: Extracting Private Data Across Clients in Federated Fine-Tuning of Large Language Models](https://huggingface.co/papers/2506.06060).
FedPII is a Chinese legal-domain dataset with fine-grained PII (Personally Identifiable Information) annotations consistent with CPIS, GDPR, and CCPA standards. It is designed to evaluate privacy risks and cross-client data leakage in Federated Large Language Models (FedLLMs).
- **GitHub Repository:** [SMILELab-FL/FedPII](https://github.com/SMILELab-FL/FedPII)
## Dataset Description
The dataset consists of 16,194 samples across various legal-related tasks. It includes fine-grained PII annotations (such as names, addresses, and birthdays) used to assess how easily private information can be recovered during federated learning.
