Abstract Large-scale neural networks-based federated learning (FL) has gained public recognition for its effective capabilities in distributed training. Nonetheless, the open system architecture inherent to federated learning systems raises concerns regarding their vulnerability to potential attacks. Poisoning attacks turn into a major menace to federated learning on account of their concealed property and potent destructive force. By altering the local model during routine machine learning training, attackers can easily contaminate the global model. Traditional detection and aggregation solutions mitigate certain threats, but they are still insufficient to completely eliminate the influence generated by attackers. Therefore, federated… More >

Abstract Scalability and information personal privacy are vital for training and deploying large-scale deep learning models. Federated learning trains models on exclusive information by aggregating weights from various devices and taking advantage of the device-agnostic environment of web browsers. Nevertheless, relying on a main central server for internet browser-based federated systems can prohibit scalability and interfere with the training process as a result of growing client numbers. Additionally, information relating to the training dataset can possibly be extracted from the distributed weights, potentially reducing the privacy of the local data used for training.

Abstract Smart internet of things (IoT) devices are used to manage domestic and industrial energy needs using sustainable and renewable energy sources. Due to cyber infiltration and a lack of transparency, the traditional transaction process is inefficient, unsafe and expensive. Smart grid systems are now efficient, safe and transparent owing to the development of blockchain (BC) technology and its smart contract (SC) solution. In this study, federated learning extreme gradient boosting (FL-XGB) framework has been developed along with BC to learn the intrusion inside the smart energy system. FL is best suited for a decentralized BC-enabled… More >
