Encryptability As a Coordinate Choice: Depth-One Homomorphic Federated Learning of Quantum Neural Networks

The paper demonstrates that by choosing unit‑quaternion coordinates, encrypted updates for variational quantum circuits become bilinear, allowing depth‑one homomorphic federated learning without bootstrapping. This coordinate choice reduces encrypted rotation updates to a single multiplicative level and federated averaging to zero levels, eliminating the previously prohibitive cost of one round per gate. Experiments across two cryptographic backends and up to 20 clients show negligible aggregation error and no measurable loss in utility, with hardware validation on a 156‑qubit processor achieving near‑optimal fidelity.

PRoVeFL: Private Robust and Verifiable Aggregation in Federated Learning

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.

TGHE: Template-based Graph Homomorphic Encryption for Privacy-Preserving GNN Inference in Edge-Cloud Systems

arXiv:2606. 26664v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Existing homomorphic encryption (HE)-based GNN systems adopt a graph-centric paradigm that couples per-query cost to global graph size, limiting evaluations to at most ~20k nodes and making them incompatible with dynamic, large-scale financial graphs.

Private Computation Space: Experience with Trusted Multi-Cluster Federated Learning for Agriculture

The paper introduces the Private Computation Space (PCS), an open‑source federated learning system designed for agriculture that protects farmer data using asynchronous federated learning, differential privacy, and trusted execution environments. PCS runs on commodity hardware and is resilient to rural infrastructure challenges. In two real‑world deployments—nitrogen monitoring in New York and evapotranspiration prediction in California—PCS achieved a Dice Similarity Coefficient of 0.71 and an $R^2$ of 0.84, improving single‑site model accuracy by 22.4% and 9.1% respectively while preserving privacy.
