New mechanisms incentivize data contribution in federated learning

A new research paper introduces three mechanisms designed to incentivize data contribution in federated learning scenarios. The proposed methods, UPBReD, 2P-UPBReD, and T-2P-UPBReD, aim to ensure that strategic data owners contribute sufficiently to the training of shared models. These mechanisms not only encourage participation but also learn the model parameters concurrently, with T-2P-UPBReD specifically designed to elicit truthful contribution reports and approximate gradient truthfulness while maintaining budget balance.

    Incentivize Contribution and Learn Parameters Too: Federated Learning with Strategic Data Owners

    arXiv:2505.12010v5 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: In federated learning (FL), a center trains a shared model from updates that clients compute on their private data. Collecting and training on data is costly, so a strategic client may contribute little data and free-ride …
