A Privacy Study of Sparse Collaborative Inference

arXiv:2608. 16236v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Collaborative inference (CI) splits a model between an edge device and a server, whereby the client computes an intermediate activation, transmits it, and the server completes the computation.

Privacy-Preserving Decentralized Federated Learning via Explainable Adaptive Differential Privacy

arXiv:2509. 10691v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Decentralized federated learning enables collaborative model training without a central server, but shared model updates can still leak sensitive information through inversion, reconstruction, and membership inference attacks.

Collaborative Synthetic Data Generation for Knowledge Transfer in Federated Learning

One-shot federated learning (OSFL) addresses the communication overhead of federated learning by limiting training to a single round, but doing so without sacrificing model quality is non-trivial, particularly when client data distributions diverge. Recent work has addressed this challenge by aggregating client knowledge on the server through the construction of transferable synthetic datasets or distillates.

The pretraining domain outweighs the training objective in setting the privacy-utility trade-off of differentially private medical image analysis

arXiv:2601. 19618v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Differential privacy protects the patients whose images train medical imaging models, but it lowers diagnostic accuracy, and the initialization is the strongest known remedy.
