Recently, with the continuous development of deep learning, the performance of named entity recognition tasks has been dramatically improved. However, the privacy and the confidentiality of data in some specific fields, such as biomedical and military, cause insufficient data to support the training of deep neural networks. In this paper, we propose an encryption learning framework to address the problems of data leakage and inconvenient disclosure of sensitive data in certain domains. We introduce multiple encryption algorithms to encrypt training data in the named entity recognition task for the first time. In other words, we train the deep neural network using the encrypted data. We conduct experiments on six Chinese datasets, three of which are constructed by ourselves. The experimental results show that the encryption method achieves satisfactory results. The performance of some models trained with encrypted data even exceeds the performance of the unencrypted method, which verifies the effectiveness of the introduced encryption method and solves the problem of data leakage to a certain extent.
