arXiv:2504. 17421v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Large language models (LMs) offer broad generalization capabilities but require vast amounts of data and computational resources for domain-specific tasks; small models (SMs), in contrast, are more efficient and tailored to specific domains yet lack general-purpose coverage.
arXiv:2606. 00947v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Foundation models are increasingly personalized on decentralized private data through federated learning and are now deployed at scale under growing regulatory requirements for post-market monitoring.
arXiv:2606. 10595v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Federated Learning (FL) has emerged as a promising solution for data hunger in centralized learning.
The paper introduces a federated inference framework that enables multiple commercial large language model (LLM) APIs—such as LLaMA‑3.3‑70B, GPT‑4o‑mini, and Claude‑3‑Haiku—to collaborate on cognitive diagnosis tasks without accessing raw student data or proprietary model internals. Each entity’s predictions are perturbed with Laplace noise to provide epsilon‑local differential privacy, and a residual‑based aggregation scheme mitigates model heterogeneity. Experiments on three educational benchmarks demonstrate strong privacy guarantees with minimal accuracy loss, confirming the framework’s practical usability and cross‑domain generalizability.
arXiv:2608. 13844v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) have become core components of cloud-based intelligent services in academia and industry, yet their training and deployment are hindered by high computational costs, data centralization, and privacy concerns.
arXiv:2606. 16891v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Federated Learning is rapidly evolving beyond the exchange of traditional model weights and gradients, yet existing definitions fail to capture the full scope of modern payloads like synthetic data and federated analytics.
The paper introduces Federated Agent Optimization (FAO), a framework for enabling large language model agents to improve collaboratively while keeping raw data, trajectories, and private knowledge local. FAO treats agent capabilities—such as memory, tools, rewards, skills, and structured knowledge—as a multi‑objective optimization space that balances utility, privacy leakage, and communication cost. It outlines methods for abstracting, protecting, aggregating, and adapting private experience into transferable capabilities, and highlights key challenges and future research directions for trustworthy federated agent systems.
arXiv:2608. 02238v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Ensuring trust in AI systems is essential for the safe and ethical integration of machine learning systems into high-stakes domains such as digital health.
The paper surveys 25 studies that use explainable AI to compromise machine learning models, covering attacks such as model extraction, membership inference, and model inversion. It distinguishes between how explanations are obtained—through target releases, attacker-derived methods, secondary disclosure, privileged access, or global artifacts—and shows that explanations can lower extraction costs and reveal membership signals via statistics, recourse distance, and robustness. The authors compare threat models, signals, and defenses, concluding that no single explanation type is always unsafe and that protection must be tailored to the specific acquisition path and target asset.
