Robust comparisons of federated aggregation methods require joint consideration of predictive performance, threat definitions, metric semantics, and execution provenance. A 500-cell seed-1 evaluation matrix was reconstructed across five aggregation methods, five datasets, five architectures, and four recorded conditions: clean, sign-flipping, Gaussian, and BadNets.

arXiv:2608. 08008v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Process reward models (PRMs) score intermediate reasoning steps and are widely used for search, ranking, and training, but optimization can exploit these learned proxies by increasing reward while turning correct reasoning into incorrect reasoning.
