• Abstract summary: We present a novel approach to Federated Deep Clustering based on Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) Each client trains a local generative adversarial network (GAN) locally and uploads the synthetic data to the server. The server applies a deep clustering network on the synthetic data to establish $k$ cluster centroids, which are then downloaded to the clients for cluster assignment.

• Abstract: Federated clustering (FC) is an essential extension of centralized clustering designed for the federated setting, wherein the challenge lies in constructing a global similarity measure without the need to share private data. Conventional approaches to FC typically adopt extensions of centralized methods, like K-means and fuzzy c-means. However, these methods are susceptible to non-independent-and-identically-distributed (non-IID) data among clients, leading to suboptimal performance, particularly with high-dimensional data. In this paper, we present a novel approach to address these limitations by proposing a Privacy-Preserving Federated Deep Clustering based on Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs). Each client trains a local generative adversarial network (GAN) locally and uploads the synthetic data to the server. The server applies a deep clustering network on the synthetic data to establish $k$ cluster centroids, which are then downloaded to the clients for cluster assignment. Theoretical analysis demonstrates that the GAN-generated samples, shared among clients, inherently uphold certain privacy guarantees, safeguarding the confidentiality of individual data. Furthermore, extensive experimental evaluations showcase the effectiveness and utility of our proposed method in achieving accurate and privacy-preserving federated clustering.

We propose a novel FedC algorithm using differential privacy convergence technique, referred to as DP-Fed, in which partial participation and multiple clients are also considered. Various attributes of the proposed DP-Fed are obtained through theoretical analyses of privacy protection, especially for the case of non-identically and independently distributed (non-i.i.d.) data.

  Federated clustering (FC) is an extension of centralized clustering in federated settings. We propose a new federated clustering framework, named synthetic data aided federated clustering (SDA-FC) It trains generative adversarial network locally in each client and uploads the generated synthetic data to the server, where KM or FCM is performed on the synthetic data. The synthetic data can make the model immune to the non-IID problem and enable us to capture the global similarity characteristics more effectively without sharing private data.
