arXiv:2607. 08651v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Decentralized federated learning (DFL) removes the central server by letting nodes exchange model updates through peer-to-peer gossip, but existing gossip-based methods often lack provenance finality and resilience to Byzantine or lazy participants.
Dealing simultaneously with confidentiality and Byzantine behaviors in decentralized learning is a challenging problem. Indeed, in decentralized learning, clients train a machine learning model while keeping their data locally and share their model parameters or gradients with a set of neighbors.

The paper investigates how the strategic placement of Byzantine nodes in decentralized federated learning (DFL) affects the propagation of malicious influence across the communication graph. It introduces Byzantine Placement Influence (BPI), a measure that captures cumulative exposure of honest nodes to Byzantine sources over time, and develops algorithms to optimize BPI across various network structures and attack types. Experiments demonstrate that BPI-guided placements consistently yield highly damaging configurations, highlighting the importance of considering node placement in DFL threat models.

arXiv:2410. 11378v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Personalized collaborative learning in federated settings faces a critical trade-off between customization and participant trust.
Federated Learning (FL) enables multiple clients to collaboratively train machine learning models while retaining data locality, thereby enhancing user privacy. However, traditional FL frameworks rely on a centralized aggregation server and assume honest-but-curious clients, making them susceptible to both server-side inference and client-side poisoning attacks.
