We study a distributed computation problem in the presence of Byzantine workers where a central node wishes to solve a task that is divided into independent sub-tasks, each of which needs to be solved correctly. The distributed computation…

Secure federated learning is a privacy-preserving framework to improve machine learning models by training over large volumes of data collected by mobile users. This is achieved through an iterative process where, at each iteration, users…

The problem of distributed optimization requires a group of agents to reach agreement on a parameter that minimizes the average of their local cost functions using information received from their neighbors. While there are a variety of…

In this paper, we propose BR-MTRL, a Byzantine-resilient multi-task representation learning framework that handles faulty or malicious agents. Our approach leverages representation learning through a shared neural network model, where all…

One of the most common defense strategies against Byzantine clients in federated learning (FL) is to employ a robust aggregator mechanism that makes the training more resilient. While many existing Byzantine robust aggregators provide…

Federated learning (FL) has gained attention as a distributed learning paradigm for its data privacy benefits and accelerated convergence through parallel computation. Traditional FL relies on a server-client (SC) architecture, where a…

In decentralized machine learning, different devices communicate in a peer-to-peer manner to collaboratively learn from each other's data. Such approaches are vulnerable to misbehaving (or Byzantine) devices. We introduce F-RG, a general…

This paper considers the problem of resilient distributed optimization and stochastic machine learning in a server-based architecture. The system comprises a server and multiple agents, where each agent has a local cost function. The agents…

In this paper, we show synchronization for a group of output passive agents that communicate with each other according to an underlying communication graph to achieve a common goal. We propose a distributed event-triggered control framework…

We consider the problem of Byzantine fault-tolerance in the peer-to-peer (P2P) distributed gradient-descent method -- a prominent algorithm for distributed optimization in a P2P system. In this problem, the system comprises of multiple…

Network traffic prediction plays a crucial role in intelligent network operation. Traditional prediction methods often rely on centralized training, necessitating the transfer of vast amounts of traffic data to a central server. This…

In this paper, we propose a robust aggregation method for federated learning (FL) that can effectively tackle malicious Byzantine attacks. At each user, model parameter is firstly updated by multiple steps, which is adjustable over…

We investigate the Byzantine attack problem within the context of model training in distributed learning systems. While ensuring the convergence of current model training processes, common solvers (e.g. SGD, Adam, RMSProp, etc.) can be…

A shared read/write register emulation provides the illusion of shared-memory on top of message-passing models. The main hurdle with such emulations is dealing with server faults in the system. Several crash-tolerant register emulations in…

This paper considers the problem of Byzantine dispersion and extends previous work along several parameters. The problem of Byzantine dispersion asks: given $n$ robots, up to $f$ of which are Byzantine, initially placed arbitrarily on an…

Byzantine attacks present a critical challenge to Federated Learning (FL), where malicious participants can disrupt the training process, degrade model accuracy, and compromise system reliability. Traditional FL frameworks typically rely on…

Increasingly machine learning systems are being deployed to edge servers and devices (e.g. mobile phones) and trained in a collaborative manner. Such distributed/federated/decentralized training raises a number of concerns about the…

This work considers resilient, cooperative state estimation in unreliable multi-agent networks. A network of agents aims to collaboratively estimate the value of an unknown vector parameter, while an {\em unknown} subset of agents suffer…

We study a multi-agent resilient consensus problem, where some agents are of the Byzantine type and try to prevent the normal ones from reaching consensus. In our setting, normal agents communicate with each other asynchronously over…

We study a framework for modeling distributed network systems assisted by a reliable and powerful cloud service. Our framework aims at capturing hybrid systems based on a point to point message passing network of machines, with the…
