• Abstract: This study investigates the potential for deanonymizing services within the Invisible Internet Project (I2P) network through passive traffic analysis and machine learning techniques. The primary objective is to identify distinctive patterns in I2P traffic despite the encryption of its payload. To achieve this, a controlled laboratory environment was established to generate synthetic I2P traffic, providing a training dataset for machine learning models. Furthermore, Fano's inequality is employed to perform a theoretical analysis of anonymous data transmission in mix networks such as I2P, thereby supporting a data-driven approach to uncover causal relationships. In computer experiments, advanced deep learning methods - particularly Convolutional Neural Networks - are applied within the laboratory I2P network, and their effectiveness is further evaluated using real-world traffic data. The results indicate that the proposed methodologies do not compromise the anonymity guarantees of the I2P network.

• Device Sampling and Resource Optimization for Federated Learning in Cooperative Edge Networks [17.637761046608]
  Federated learning (FedL) distributes machine learning (ML) across worker devices by having them train local models that are periodically aggregated by a server. FedL ignores two important characteristics of contemporary wireless networks: (i) the network may contain heterogeneous communication/computation resources, and (ii) there may be significant overlaps in devices' local data distributions. We develop a novel optimization methodology that jointly accounts for these factors via intelligent device sampling complemented by device-to-device (D2D) offloading.
