Federated learning, as a distributed learning that conducts the training on the local devices without accessing to the training data, is vulnerable to dirty-label data poisoning adversarial attacks. We claim that the federated learning model has to avoid those kind of adversarial attacks through filtering out the clients that manipulate the local data. We propose a dynamic federated learning model that dynamically discards those adversarial clients, which allows to prevent the corruption of the global learning model. We evaluate the dynamic discarding of adversarial clients deploying a deep learning classification model in a federated learning setting, and using the EMNIST Digits and Fashion MNIST image classification datasets. Likewise, we analyse the capacity of detecting clients with poor data distribution and reducing the number of rounds of learning by selecting the clients to aggregate. The results show that the dynamic selection of the clients to aggregate enhances the performance of the global learning model, discards the adversarial and poor clients and reduces the rounds of learning.

Federated learning involves training machine learning models over devices or data silos, such as edge processors or data warehouses, while keeping the data local. Training in heterogeneous and potentially massive networks introduces bias into the sys tem, which is originated from the non-IID data and the low participation rate in reality. In this paper, we propose Elastic Federated Learning (EFL), an unbiased algorithm to tackle the heterogeneity in the system, which makes the most informative parameters less volatile during training, and utilizes the incomplete local updates. It is an efficient and effective algorithm that compresses both upstream and downstream communications. Theoretically, the algorithm has convergence guarantee when training on the non-IID data at the low participation rate. Empirical experiments corroborate the competitive performance of EFL framework on the robustness and the efficiency.
Although deep neural networks have shown promising performances on various tasks, they are susceptible to incorrect predictions induced by imperceptibly small perturbations in inputs. A large number of previous works proposed to detect adversarial at tacks. Yet, most of them cannot effectively detect them against adaptive whitebox attacks where an adversary has the knowledge of the model and the defense method. In this paper, we propose a new probabilistic adversarial detector motivated by a recently introduced non-robust feature. We consider the non-robust features as a common property of adversarial examples, and we deduce it is possible to find a cluster in representation space corresponding to the property. This idea leads us to probability estimate distribution of adversarial representations in a separate cluster, and leverage the distribution for a likelihood based adversarial detector.
Federated Learning (FL), arising as a novel secure learning paradigm, has received notable attention from the public. In each round of synchronous FL training, only a fraction of available clients are chosen to participate and the selection decision might have a significant effect on the training efficiency, as well as the final model performance. In this paper, we investigate the client selection problem under a volatile context, in which the local training of heterogeneous clients is likely to fail due to various kinds of reasons and in different levels of frequency. Intuitively, too much training failure might potentially reduce the training efficiency, while too much selection on clients with greater stability might introduce bias, and thereby result in degradation of the training effectiveness. To tackle this tradeoff, we in this paper formulate the client selection problem under joint consideration of effective participation and fairness. Further, we propose E3CS, a stochastic client selection scheme on the basis of an adversarial bandit solution, and we further corroborate its effectiveness by conducting real data-based experiments. According to the experimental results, our proposed selection scheme is able to achieve up to 2x faster convergence to a fixed model accuracy while maintaining the same level of final model accuracy, in comparison to the vanilla selection scheme in FL.

Federated learning (FL) is a distributed machine learning approach involving multiple clients collaboratively training a shared model. Such a system has the advantage of more training data from multiple clients, but data can be non-identically and in dependently distributed (non-i.i.d.). Privacy and integrity preserving features such as differential privacy (DP) and robust aggregation (RA) are commonly used in FL. In this work, we show that on common deep learning tasks, the performance of FL models differs amongst clients and situations, and FL models can sometimes perform worse than local models due to non-i.i.d. data. Secondly, we show that incorporating DP and RA degrades performance further. Then, we conduct an ablation study on the performance impact of different combinations of common personalization approaches for FL, such as finetuning, mixture-of-experts ensemble, multi-task learning, and knowledge distillation. It is observed that certain combinations of personalization approaches are more impactful in certain scenarios while others always improve performance, and combination approaches are better than individual ones. Most clients obtained better performance with combined personalized FL and recover from performance degradation caused by non-i.i.d. data, DP, and RA.
We consider adversarial attacks to a black-box model when no queries are allowed. In this setting, many methods directly attack surrogate models and transfer the obtained adversarial examples to fool the target model. Plenty of previous works investi gated what kind of attacks to the surrogate model can generate more transferable adversarial examples, but their performances are still limited due to the mismatches between surrogate models and the target model. In this paper, we tackle this problem from a novel angle -- instead of using the original surrogate models, can we obtain a Meta-Surrogate Model (MSM) such that attacks to this model can be easier transferred to other models? We show that this goal can be mathematically formulated as a well-posed (bi-level-like) optimization problem and design a differentiable attacker to make training feasible. Given one or a set of surrogate models, our method can thus obtain an MSM such that adversarial examples generated on MSM enjoy eximious transferability. Comprehensive experiments on Cifar-10 and ImageNet demonstrate that by attacking the MSM, we can obtain stronger transferable adversarial examples to fool black-box models including adversarially trained ones, with much higher success rates than existing methods. The proposed method reveals significant security challenges of deep models and is promising to be served as a state-of-the-art benchmark for evaluating the robustness of deep models in the black-box setting.
