• Abstract: Federated learning (FL) schemes allow multiple participants to collaboratively train neural networks without the need to directly share the underlying data.However, in early schemes, all participants eventually obtain the same model. Moreover, the aggregation is typically carried out by a third party, who obtains combined gradients or weights, which may reveal the model. These downsides underscore the demand for fair and privacy-preserving FL schemes. Here, collaborative fairness asks for individual model quality depending on the individual data contribution. Privacy is demanded with respect to any kind of data outsourced to the third party. Now, there already exist some approaches aiming for either fair or privacy-preserving FL and a few works even address both features. In our paper, we build upon these seminal works and present a novel, fair and privacy-preserving FL scheme. Our approach, which mainly relies on homomorphic encryption, stands out for exclusively using local gradients. This increases the usability in comparison to state-of-the-art approaches and thereby opens the door to applications in control.

  Federated learning (FL) has emerged as a method to preserve privacy in collaborative distributed learning. We introduce a privacy-preserving FL framework that combines differential privacy and system immersion tools from control theory. We demonstrate that the proposed privacy-preserving scheme can be tailored to offer any desired level of differential privacy for both local and global model parameters.

  We propose a novel Social-aware Clustered Federated Learning scheme, where mutually trusted individuals can freely form a social cluster. By mixing model updates in a social group, adversaries can only eavesdrop the social-layer combined results, but not the privacy of individuals. Experiments on Facebook network and MNIST/CIFAR-10 datasets validate that our SCFL can effectively enhance learning utility, improve user payoff, and enforce customizable privacy protection.

  We propose a fair vertical federated learning framework (FairVFL) to improve the fairness of VFL models. The core idea of FairVFL is to learn unified and fair representations of samples based on the decentralized feature fields in a privacy-preserving way. For protecting user privacy, we propose a contrastive adversarial learning method to remove private information from the unified representation in server.

  This work is inspired by knowledge transfer non-federated privacy learning from Papernot et al.

Our approaches significantly improve the privacy-utility trade-off over the state-of-the-arts in DPFL.
