Distributed learning enables scalable model training over decentralized data, but remains hindered by Byzantine faults and high communication costs. While both challenges have been studied extensively in isolation, their interplay has…
Adversarial attacks pose a major challenge to distributed learning systems, prompting the development of numerous robust learning methods. However, most existing approaches suffer from the curse of dimensionality, i.e. the error increases…
In this paper, we study the challenging task of Byzantine-robust decentralized training on arbitrary communication graphs. Unlike federated learning where workers communicate through a server, workers in the decentralized environment can…

Implementations of SGD on distributed systems create new vulnerabilities, which can be identified and misused by one or more adversarial agents. Recently, it has been shown that well-known Byzantine-resilient gradient aggregation schemes…
The Weighted-Mean Subsequence Reduced (W-MSR) algorithm, the state-of-the-art method for Byzantine-resilient design of decentralized multi-robot systems, is based on discarding outliers received over Linear Consensus Protocol (LCP).…
In this paper, we study secure distributed optimization against arbitrary gradient attack in multi-agent networks. In distributed optimization, there is no central server to coordinate local updates, and each agent can only communicate with…
The problem of distributed optimization requires a group of networked agents to compute a parameter that minimizes the average of their local cost functions. While there are a variety of distributed optimization algorithms that can solve…
We propose three new robust aggregation rules for distributed synchronous Stochastic Gradient Descent~(SGD) under a general Byzantine failure model. The attackers can arbitrarily manipulate the data transferred between the servers and the…
In this paper, we propose a zeroth-order resilient distributed online algorithm for networks under Byzantine edge attacks. We assume that both the edges attacked by Byzantine adversaries and the objective function are time-varying.…
Distributed control systems require high reliability and availability guarantees despite often being deployed at the edge of network infrastructure. Edge computing resources are less secure and less reliable than centralized resources in…
Gradient-based training in federated learning is known to be vulnerable to faulty/malicious clients, which are often modeled as Byzantine clients. To this end, previous work either makes use of auxiliary data at parameter server to verify…
We analyze stochastic gradient algorithms for optimizing nonconvex, nonsmooth finite-sum problems. In particular, the objective function is given by the summation of a differentiable (possibly nonconvex) component, together with a possibly…
Federated Learning (FL) enables multiple clients to collaboratively train models without sharing raw data, but is vulnerable to Byzantine attacks and data heterogeneity, which can severely degrade performance. Existing Byzantine-robust…
Byzantine resilience emerged as a prominent topic within the distributed machine learning community. Essentially, the goal is to enhance distributed optimization algorithms, such as distributed SGD, in a way that guarantees convergence…
This paper addresses the challenge of solving the generalized Nash Equilibrium seeking problem for decentralized stochastic online multi-cluster games amidst Byzantine agents. During the game process, each honest agent is influenced by both…
Distributed algorithms provide flexibility over centralized algorithms for resource allocation problems, e.g., cyber-physical systems. However, the distributed nature of these algorithms often makes the systems susceptible to…
