TL;DR
Findings indicate that the integration of stabilisation, directional filtering, and trimmed-mean aggregation improves empirical robustness under the evaluated adversarial settings, although the present study does not establish formal Byzantine fault-tolerance or convergence guarantees.
Federated learning (FL) has gained prominence in decentralized artificial intelligence applications; however, its susceptibility to adversarial attacks, particularly GAN-based poisoning, remains a critical challenge. This study proposes a decentralized, multi-layered security framework integrating blockchain-backed val...

Federated Learning (FL) enables distributed model training without sharing raw data, making it particularly suitable for Internet of Things (IoT) environments. However, FL remains vulnerable to poisoning attacks, where malicious clients manipulate local updates to corrupt global model optimization. Existing defenses ma...

Federated learning (FL) enables multiple clients to collaboratively train machine learning models without sharing their raw data, making it a promising paradigm for privacy-sensitive generative applications. However, diffusion models trained in federated environments remain vulnerable to backdoor, evasion, and model-po...

With recent developments in Artificial Intelligence (AI), the adoption of distributed learning paradigms such as Federated Learning (FL) has emerged. In simple terms, FL enables multiple entities to collaboratively train AI models without sharing local data. The FL paradigm is particularly valuable in privacy-sensitive...
