A new research paper proposes a novel aggregation rule for federated learning that utilizes truncated-quadratic (TQ) loss to enhance robustness against malicious attacks and data heterogeneity. This TQ loss method aims to mitigate biases found in existing techniques like centered clipping and Huber aggregators. Experiments on datasets such as MNIST, Fashion-MNIST, and CIFAR-10 demonstrate that the TQ aggregator offers superior robustness and learning performance compared to current methods, even when only an estimate of Byzantine clients is available.
