Understanding Byzantine Robustness in Federated Learning with A Black-box Server [PDF]
Federated learning (FL) becomes vulnerable to Byzantine attacks where some of participators tend to damage the utility or discourage the convergence of the learned model via sending their malicious model updates. Previous works propose to apply robust rules to aggregate updates from participators against different types of Byzantine attacks, while at ...

The late historian Robin Evans, takes up the debate symbolised between Wblfflin, proposing that meaning is directly accessible through the form of a building, and Wittkower, arguing that meaning lies behind the form of architecture, in other texts and ...

Byzantine-Resilient Zero-Order Optimization for Communication-Efficient Heterogeneous Federated Learning [PDF]
We introduce CyBeR-0, a Byzantine-resilient federated zero-order optimization method that is robust under Byzantine attacks and provides significant savings in uplink and downlink communication costs. We introduce transformed robust aggregation to give convergence guarantees for general non-convex objectives under client data heterogeneity.
