Federated Learning (FL) has become a key approach for training machine learning models without sharing raw data. However, when moving toward decentralized federated learning (DFL)—where there is no central server—new security challenges emerge. In such systems, participants (clients) directly exchange… Read More »RepuNet: A Reputation System for Mitigating Malicious Clients in DFL
Federated learning (FL) has emerged as a key approach for training machine learning models without sharing raw data, making it highly relevant for privacy-sensitive applications. However, many existing FL frameworks rely on a central coordinator, which can introduce bottlenecks and… Read More »DEMO: NEBULA – Decentralized Federated Learning for Heterogeneous Networks
This paper introduces S-VOTE, a similarity-based voting mechanism designed to improve both efficiency and model performance in Decentralized Federated Learning (DFL). Unlike traditional federated learning, DFL operates without a central server, relying on peer-to-peer communication. While this avoids bottlenecks and… Read More »S-VOTE: Similarity-based Voting for Client Selection in Decentralized Federated Learning
This paper introduces ProFe, a new algorithm designed to make Decentralized Federated Learning (DFL) more communication-efficient without compromising model performance. In DFL, clients collaborate without a central server, which avoids single-point failures but creates significant communication overhead—especially when nodes have… Read More »ProFe: Communication-Efficient Decentralized Federated Learning via Distillation and Prototypes
