Resource-Aware Federated Mixture-of-Experts with Adaptive Pruning for Onboard Learning in LEO Satellite Constellations

Low-Earth-orbit (LEO) satellites are increasingly expected to perform onboard learning for applications such as disaster response and environmental monitoring. However, conventional federated learning (FL) is ill-suited to onboard satellite learning, as it assumes computational, memory, and communication resources beyo...

Region-Level Black-Box Defense Against Stealthy Embedding-Space Backdoors in CLIP

CLIPGuard is proposed, a lightweight and fully black-box defense specifically designed to mitigate embedding-space backdoors in CLIP encoders, consistently outperforming existing black-box defenses, including CleanCLIP and CleanerCLIP.

When Clients Are Orchestrated: Strategic Gradient Manipulation to Defeat Federated Learning Servers with Efficient Defense

Federated Learning enables decentralized model training by exchanging model updates--rather than raw data--with a central parameter server (PS). While most of the existing defenses primarily assume static or independently acting adversaries, we reveal a new class of dynamically adaptive attacks that systematically bypa...

Beyond Small Patches: Black-Box Detection and Purification of Diverse Backdoor Triggers

Deep neural networks (DNNs) are increasingly deployed in real-world vision systems, yet their predictions can be covertly manipulated by backdoor attacks, in which malicious triggers cause targeted misclassification while preserving high clean accuracy. Existing defenses often rely on model internals, training data, or...
