New federated learning framework balances privacy and utility

Researchers have developed a new federated learning framework designed to balance privacy and utility. This framework allows for adaptive and fine-grained protection of model parameters on a per-client and per-round basis. Theoretical analysis shows that the utility loss gap compared to optimal protection is sub-linear with increasing iterations, and empirical results on benchmark datasets confirm its superior utility over baseline methods under identical privacy budgets.

IMPACT This research could lead to more effective privacy-preserving machine learning applications in distributed environments.

    Theoretically Principled Federated Learning for Balancing Privacy and Utility

    arXiv:2305.15148v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We propose a general learning framework for the protection mechanisms that protects privacy via distorting model parameters, which facilitates the trade-off between privacy and utility. The algorithm is applicable to arbitrary p…
