Recommender systems are commonly trained on centrally collected user interaction data like views or clicks. This practice however raises serious privacy concerns regarding the recommenders collection and handling of potentially sensitive data. Several privacy-aware recommender systems have been proposed in recent literature, but comparatively little attention has been given to systems at the intersection of implicit feedback and privacy. To address this shortcoming, we propose a practical federated recommender system for implicit data under user-level local differential privacy (LDP). The privacy-utility trade-off is controlled by parameters $epsilon$ and $k$, regulating the per-update privacy budget and the number of $epsilon$-LDP gradient updates sent by each user respectively. To further protect the users privacy, we introduce a proxy network to reduce the fingerprinting surface by anonymizing and shuffling the reports before forwarding them to the recommender. We empirically demonstrate the effectiveness of our framework on the MovieLens dataset, achieving up to Hit Ratio with K=10 (HR@10) 0.68 on 50k users with 5k items. Even on the full dataset, we show that it is possible to achieve reasonable utility with HR@10>0.5 without compromising user privacy.

This paper proposes implicit CF-NADE, a neural autoregressive model for collaborative filtering tasks using implicit feedback ( e.g. click, watch, browse behaviors). We first convert a users implicit feedback into a like vector and a confidence vecto
r, and then model the probability of the like vector, weighted by the confidence vector. The training objective of implicit CF-NADE is to maximize a weighted negative log-likelihood. We test the performance of implicit CF-NADE on a dataset collected from a popular digital TV streaming service. More specifically, in the experiments, we describe how to convert watch counts into implicit relative rating, and feed into implicit CF-NADE. Then we compare the performance of implicit CF-NADE model with the popular implicit matrix factorization approach. Experimental results show that implicit CF-NADE significantly outperforms the baseline.
Gradient-based training in federated learning is known to be vulnerable to faulty/malicious worker nodes, which are often modeled as Byzantine clients. Previous work either makes use of auxiliary data at parameter server to verify the received gradie
nts or leverages statistic-based methods to identify and remove malicious gradients from Byzantine clients. In this paper, we acknowledge that auxiliary data may not always be available in practice and focus on the statistic-based approach. However, recent work on model poisoning attacks have shown that well-crafted attacks can circumvent most of existing median- and distance-based statistical defense methods, making malicious gradients indistinguishable from honest ones. To tackle this challenge, we show that the element-wise sign of gradient vector can provide valuable insight in detecting model poisoning attacks. Based on our theoretical analysis of state-of-the-art attack, we propose a novel approach, textit{SignGuard}, to enable Byzantine-robust federated learning through collaborative malicious gradient filtering. More precisely, the received gradients are first processed to generate relevant magnitude, sign, and similarity statistics, which are then collaboratively utilized by multiple, parallel filters to eliminate malicious gradients before final aggregation. We further provide theoretical analysis of SignGuard by quantifying its convergence with appropriate choice of learning rate and under non-IID training data. Finally, extensive experiments of image and text classification tasks - including MNIST, Fashion-MNIST, CIFAR-10, and AG-News - are conducted together with recently proposed attacks and defense strategies. The numerical results demonstrate the effectiveness and superiority of our proposed approach.
We consider the problem of reinforcing federated learning with formal privacy guarantees. We propose to employ Bayesian differential privacy, a relaxation of differential privacy for similarly distributed data, to provide sharper privacy loss bounds.
We adapt the Bayesian privacy accounting method to the federated setting and suggest multiple improvements for more efficient privacy budgeting at different levels. Our experiments show significant advantage over the state-of-the-art differential privacy bounds for federated learning on image classification tasks, including a medical application, bringing the privacy budget below 1 at the client level, and below 0.1 at the instance level. Lower amounts of noise also benefit the model accuracy and reduce the number of communication rounds.
Negative sampling approaches are prevalent in implicit collaborative filtering for obtaining negative labels from massive unlabeled data. As two major concerns in negative sampling, efficiency and effectiveness are still not fully achieved by recent
works that use complicate structures and overlook risk of false negative instances. In this paper, we first provide a novel understanding of negative instances by empirically observing that only a few instances are potentially important for model learning, and false negatives tend to have stable predictions over many training iterations. Above findings motivate us to simplify the model by sampling from designed memory that only stores a few important candidates and, more importantly, tackle the untouched false negative problem by favouring high-variance samples stored in memory, which achieves efficient sampling of true negatives with high-quality. Empirical results on two synthetic datasets and three real-world datasets demonstrate both robustness and superiorities of our negative sampling method.
Federated learning is the distributed machine learning framework that enables collaborative training across multiple parties while ensuring data privacy. Practical adaptation of XGBoost, the state-of-the-art tree boosting framework, to federated lear
ning remains limited due to high cost incurred by conventional privacy-preserving methods. To address the problem, we propose two variants of federated XGBoost with privacy guarantee: FedXGBoost-SMM and FedXGBoost-LDP. Our first protocol FedXGBoost-SMM deploys enhanced secure matrix multiplication method to preserve privacy with lossless accuracy and lower overhead than encryption-based techniques. Developed independently, the second protocol FedXGBoost-LDP is heuristically designed with noise perturbation for local differential privacy, and empirically evaluated on real-world and synthetic datasets.
