FL-GUARD introduces a dynamic solution for detecting and recovering from Negative Federated Learning in real-time, outperforming previous approaches.
Аннотация
FL-GUARD is a framework designed to address the issue of Negative Federated Learning (NFL) by dynamically detecting NFL at an early stage and activating recovery measures when necessary. The framework focuses on improving the performance of federated learning systems by adapting models to fit local data distributions. By utilizing a cost-effective NFL detection mechanism based on performance gain estimation, FL-GUARD ensures efficient detection and recovery from NFL. Extensive experiments confirm the effectiveness of FL-GUARD in detecting and recovering from NFL, showcasing compatibility with existing solutions while remaining robust against clients unwilling or unable to take recovery measures.
Статистика
Many studies have reported the failure of Federated Learning (FL) due to issues like data heterogeneity among clients, client inactivity, attacks from malicious clients, and noises introduced by privacy-protection measures.
Consequences of FL failure include clients being unwilling to participate, wasted rounds of client computation, and disintegration of the federation.
FL-GUARD introduces a holistic framework for tackling Negative Federated Learning (NFL) in a run-time paradigm by dynamically detecting NFL early on and activating recovery measures when needed.
The framework relies on a cost-effective NFL detection mechanism based on an estimation of performance gain on clients to detect and recover from NFL efficiently.
Extensive experiment results confirm the effectiveness of FL-GUARD in detecting NFL and recovering from it to ensure healthy learning states.
