Abstract

Federated learning (FL) is a kind of privacy-awaremachine learning, in which the machine learning models are trained on the users’ side and then the model updates are transmitted to the server for aggregating. As the data owners need not upload their data, FL is a privacy-persevering machine learning model. However, FL is weak as it suffers from a reverse attack, in which an adversary can get users’ data by analyzing the user uploaded model. Motivated by this, in this paper, based on the secret sharing, we design, an efficient privacy-preserving data aggregation mechanism for FL, to resist the reverse attack, which can aggregate users’ trained models secretly without leaking the user’s model. Moreover,EPPDAhas efficient fault tolerance for the user disconnection. Even if a large number of users are disconnected when the protocol runs, EPPDA will execute normally. Analysis shows that the EPPDA can provide a sum of locally trained models to the server without leaking any single user’s model. Moreover, adversary can not get any non-public information from the communication channel.Efficiency verificationproves that the EPPDA not only protects users’ privacy but also needs fewer computing and communication resources.

This paper’s full text isn’t openly available, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • While using FL, each hospital trains their model based on locally available X-ray images and only shares gradients with a global model for computation, hence ensuring privacy preservation.

    “While using FL, each hospital trains their model based on locally available X-ray images and only shares gradients with a global model for computation, hence ensuring privacy preservation [78].”
  • EPPDA, based on secret sharing to resist the reverse attack, can covertly aggregate user-trained models without disclosing the user model.

    “Similar results have been achieved by EPPDA [69], an efficient privacy-preserving data aggregation method for FL that, based on secret sharing to resist the reverse attack, can covertly aggregate user-trained models without disclosing the user model.”
  • EPPDA preserves user privacy, requires less computing and communication resources than alternatives such as [62], and provides acceptable fault tolerance in the event of user disconnection.

    “Adopting the homomorphisms of secret sharing, it preserves user privacy and requires less computing and communication resources than alternatives as [62], and is able to provide acceptable fault tolerance in the event of user disconnection.”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
