Fabricated Flips: Poisoning Federated Learning without Data

Attacks on Federated Learning (FL) can severely reduce the quality of the generated models and limit the usefulness of this emerging learning paradigm that enables on-premise decentralized learning. However, existing untargeted attacks are not practical for many scenarios as they assume that i) the attacker knows every update of benign...

GDTS: GAN-Based Distributed Tabular Synthesizer

Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) are typically trained to synthesize data, from images and more recently tabular data, under the assumption of directly accessible training data. While learning image GANs on Federated Learning (FL) and Multi-Discriminator (MD) systems has just been demonstrated, it is unknown if tabular GANs can be learned...

Federated Learning for Tabular Data: Exploring Potential Risk to Privacy

Federated Learning (FL) has emerged as a potentially powerful privacy-preserving machine learning method-ology, since it avoids exchanging data between participants, but instead exchanges model parameters. FL has traditionally been applied to image, voice and similar data, but recently it has started to draw attention from domains including...
