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.

StoCFL is a clustered federated learning framework designed to address Non-IID data and dynamic client participation. It introduces a flexible clustering mechanism that allows arbitrary client participation and accommodates newly joined clients, improving data efficiency and model performance. Experiments on four Non-IID settings and a real-world dataset demonstrate that StoCFL achieves promising cluster results even when the number of clusters is unknown, outperforming baseline approaches across various scenarios.
