Graph learning models are critical tools for researchers to explore graph-structured data. To train a capable graph learning model, a conventional method uses sufficient training data to train a graph model on a single device. However, it is prohibitive to do so in real-world scenarios due to privacy concerns. Federated learning provides a feasible solution to address such limitations via introducing various privacy-preserving mechanisms, such as differential privacy on graph edges. Nevertheless, differential privacy in federated graph learning secures the classified information maintained in graphs. It degrades the performances of the graph learning models. In this paper, we investigate how to implement differential privacy on graph edges and observe the performances decreasing in the experiments. We also note that the differential privacy on graph edges introduces noises to perturb graph proximity, which is one of the graph augmentations in graph contrastive learning. Inspired by that, we propose to leverage the advantages of graph contrastive learning to alleviate the performance dropping caused by differential privacy. Extensive experiments are conducted with several representative graph models and widely-used datasets, showing that contrastive learning indeed alleviates the models' performance dropping caused by differential privacy.

Privacy, security and data governance constraints rule out a brute force process in the integration of cross-silo data, which inherits the development of the Internet of Things. Federated learning is proposed to ensure that all parties can collaboratively complete the training task while the data is not out of the local. Vertical federated learning is a specialization of federated learning for distributed features. To preserve privacy, homomorphic encryption is applied to enable encrypted operations without decryption. Nevertheless, together with a robust security guarantee, homomorphic encryption brings extra communication and computation overhead. In this paper, we analyze the current bottlenecks of vertical federated learning under homomorphic encryption comprehensively and numerically. We propose a straggler-resilient and computation-efficient accelerating system that reduces the communication overhead in heterogeneous scenarios by 65.26% at most and reduces the computation overhead caused by homomorphic encryption by 40.66% at most. Our system can improve the robustness and efficiency of the current vertical federated learning framework without loss of security.

Federated learning (FL) is a privacy-preserving learning paradigm that allows multiple parities to jointly train a powerful machine learning model without sharing their private data. According to the form of collaboration, FL can be further divided into horizontal federated learning (HFL) and vertical federated learning (VFL). In HFL, participants share the same feature space and collaborate on data samples, while in VFL, participants share the same sample IDs and collaborate on features. VFL has a broader scope of applications and is arguably more suitable for joint model training between large enterprises. In this paper, we focus on VFL and investigate potential privacy leakage in real-world VFL frameworks. We design and implement two practical privacy attacks: reverse multiplication attack for the logistic regression VFL protocol; and reverse sum attack for the XGBoost VFL protocol. We empirically show that the two attacks are (1) effective - the adversary can successfully steal the private training data, even when the intermediate outputs are encrypted to protect data privacy; (2) evasive - the attacks do not deviate from the protocol specification nor deteriorate the accuracy of the target model; and (3) easy - the adversary needs little prior knowledge about the data distribution of the target participant. We also show the leaked information is as effective as the raw training data in training an alternative classifier. We further discuss potential countermeasures and their challenges, which we hope can lead to several promising research directions.

We present prompt distribution learning for effectively adapting a pre-trained vision-language model to address downstream recognition tasks. Our method not only learns low-bias prompts from a few samples but also captures the distribution of diverse prompts to handle the varying visual representations. In this way, we provide high-quality task-related content for facilitating recognition. This prompt distribution learning is realized by an efficient approach that learns the output embeddings of prompts instead of the input embeddings. Thus, we can employ a Gaussian distribution to model them effectively and derive a surrogate loss for efficient training. Extensive experiments on 12 datasets demonstrate that our method consistently and significantly outperforms existing methods. For example, with 1 sample per category, it relatively improves the average result by 9.1% compared to human-crafted prompts.

With its powerful capability to deal with graph data widely found in practical applications, graph neural networks (GNNs) have received significant research attention. However, as societies become increasingly concerned with data privacy, GNNs face the need to adapt to this new normal. This has led to the rapid development of federated graph neural networks (FedGNNs) research in recent years. Although promising, this interdisciplinary field is highly challenging for interested researchers to enter into. The lack of an insightful survey on this topic only exacerbates this problem. In this paper, we bridge this gap by offering a comprehensive survey of this emerging field. We propose a unique 3-tiered taxonomy of the FedGNNs literature to provide a clear view into how GNNs work in the context of Federated Learning (FL). It puts existing works into perspective by analyzing how graph data manifest themselves in FL settings, how GNN training is performed under different FL system architectures and degrees of graph data overlap across data silo, and how GNN aggregation is performed under various FL settings. Through discussions of the advantages and limitations of existing works, we envision future research directions that can help build more robust, dynamic, efficient, and interpretable FedGNNs.

Federated Learning aims to learn machine learning models from multiple decentralized edge devices (e.g. mobiles) or servers without sacrificing local data privacy. Recent Natural Language Processing techniques rely on deep learning and large pre-trained language models. However, both big deep neural and language models are trained with huge amounts of data which often lies on the server side. Since text data is widely originated from end users, in this work, we look into recent NLP models and techniques which use federated learning as the learning framework. Our survey discusses major challenges in federated natural language processing, including the algorithm challenges, system challenges as well as the privacy issues. We also provide a critical review of the existing Federated NLP evaluation methods and tools. Finally, we highlight the current research gaps and future directions.

Federated Learning (FL) is a decentralized machine-learning paradigm, in which a global server iteratively averages the model parameters of local users without accessing their data. User heterogeneity has imposed significant challenges to FL, which can incur drifted global models that are slow to converge. Knowledge Distillation has recently emerged to tackle this issue, by refining the server model using aggregated knowledge from heterogeneous users, other than directly averaging their model parameters. This approach, however, depends on a proxy dataset, making it impractical unless such a prerequisite is satisfied. Moreover, the ensemble knowledge is not fully utilized to guide local model learning, which may in turn affect the quality of the aggregated model. Inspired by the prior art, we propose a data-free knowledge distillation} approach to address heterogeneous FL, where the server learns a lightweight generator to ensemble user information in a data-free manner, which is then broadcasted to users, regulating local training using the learned knowledge as an inductive bias. Empirical studies powered by theoretical implications show that, our approach facilitates FL with better generalization performance using fewer communication rounds, compared with the state-of-the-art.

Federated learning (FL) is an emerging, privacy-preserving machine learning paradigm, drawing tremendous attention in both academia and industry. A unique characteristic of FL is heterogeneity, which resides in the various hardware specifications and dynamic states across the participating devices. Theoretically, heterogeneity can exert a huge influence on the FL training process, e.g., causing a device unavailable for training or unable to upload its model updates. Unfortunately, these impacts have never been systematically studied and quantified in existing FL literature. In this paper, we carry out the first empirical study to characterize the impacts of heterogeneity in FL. We collect large-scale data from 136k smartphones that can faithfully reflect heterogeneity in real-world settings. We also build a heterogeneity-aware FL platform that complies with the standard FL protocol but with heterogeneity in consideration. Based on the data and the platform, we conduct extensive experiments to compare the performance of state-of-the-art FL algorithms under heterogeneity-aware and heterogeneity-unaware settings. Results show that heterogeneity causes non-trivial performance degradation in FL, including up to 9.2% accuracy drop, 2.32x lengthened training time, and undermined fairness. Furthermore, we analyze potential impact factors and find that device failure and participant bias are two potential factors for performance degradation. Our study provides insightful implications for FL practitioners. On the one hand, our findings suggest that FL algorithm designers consider necessary heterogeneity during the evaluation. On the other hand, our findings urge system providers to design specific mechanisms to mitigate the impacts of heterogeneity.

As data are increasingly being stored in different silos and societies becoming more aware of data privacy issues, the traditional centralized training of artificial intelligence (AI) models is facing efficiency and privacy challenges. Recently, federated learning (FL) has emerged as an alternative solution and continue to thrive in this new reality. Existing FL protocol design has been shown to be vulnerable to adversaries within or outside of the system, compromising data privacy and system robustness. Besides training powerful global models, it is of paramount importance to design FL systems that have privacy guarantees and are resistant to different types of adversaries. In this paper, we conduct the first comprehensive survey on this topic. Through a concise introduction to the concept of FL, and a unique taxonomy covering: 1) threat models; 2) poisoning attacks and defenses against robustness; 3) inference attacks and defenses against privacy, we provide an accessible review of this important topic. We highlight the intuitions, key techniques as well as fundamental assumptions adopted by various attacks and defenses. Finally, we discuss promising future research directions towards robust and privacy-preserving federated learning.

The demand for artificial intelligence has grown significantly over the last decade and this growth has been fueled by advances in machine learning techniques and the ability to leverage hardware acceleration. However, in order to increase the quality of predictions and render machine learning solutions feasible for more complex applications, a substantial amount of training data is required. Although small machine learning models can be trained with modest amounts of data, the input for training larger models such as neural networks grows exponentially with the number of parameters. Since the demand for processing training data has outpaced the increase in computation power of computing machinery, there is a need for distributing the machine learning workload across multiple machines, and turning the centralized into a distributed system. These distributed systems present new challenges, first and foremost the efficient parallelization of the training process and the creation of a coherent model. This article provides an extensive overview of the current state-of-the-art in the field by outlining the challenges and opportunities of distributed machine learning over conventional (centralized) machine learning, discussing the techniques used for distributed machine learning, and providing an overview of the systems that are available.
