Privatized graph federated learning

Ali H. Sayed, Stefan Vlaski, Elsa Rizk

Federated learning is a semi-distributed algorithm, where a server communicates with multiple dispersed clients to learn a global model. The federated architecture is not robust and is sensitive to communication and computational overloads due to its one-m ...

Authenticated private information retrieval

Bryan Alexander Ford, Henry Nathaniel Corrigan-Gibbs, Kirill Nikitin, Simone Maria Stefano Colombo

This paper introduces protocols for authenticated private information retrieval. These schemes enable a client to fetch a record from a remote database server such that (a) the server does not learn which record the client reads, and (b) the client either ...

Federated Linear Bandit Learning via Over-the-air Computation

Yuning Jiang, Xin Liu

In this paper, we investigate federated contextual linear bandit learning within a wireless system that comprises a server and multiple devices. Each device interacts with the environment, selects an action based on the received reward, and sends model upd ...

On Quantum Secure Compressing Pseudorandom Functions

Ritam Bhaumik

In this paper we characterize all 2n-bit-to-n-bit Pseudorandom Functions (PRFs) constructed with the minimum number of calls to n-bit-to-n-bit PRFs and arbitrary number of linear functions. First, we show that all two-round constructions are either classic ...

When to Hedge in Interactive Services

Aikaterini Argyraki, Edouard Bugnion, Mia Primorac

In online data-intensive (OLDI) services, each client request typically executes on multiple servers in parallel; as a result, “system hiccups”, although rare within a single server, can interfere with many client requests and cause violations of service-l ...

LENA: Communication-Efficient Distributed Learning with Self-Triggered Gradient Uploads

Martin Jaggi, Sebastian Urban Stich

In distributed optimization, parameter updates from the gradient computing node devices have to be aggregated in every iteration on the orchestrating server. When these updates are sent over an arbitrary commodity network, bandwidth and latency can be limi ...

GARFIELD: System Support for Byzantine Machine Learning (Regular Paper)

Rachid Guerraoui, Sébastien Louis Alexandre Rouault, Arsany Hany Abdelmessih Guirguis

We present GARFIELD, a library to transparently make machine learning (ML) applications, initially built with popular (but fragile) frameworks, e.g., TensorFlow and PyTorch, Byzantine–resilient. GARFIELD relies on a novel object–oriented design, reducing t ...

Understanding and Mitigating Latency Variability of Latency-Critical Applications

Mia Primorac

A major theme of IT in the past decade has been the shift from on-premise hardware to cloud computing. Running a service in the public cloud is practical, because a large number of resources can be bought on-demand, but this shift comes with its own set of ...

Encrypted DNS double right arrow Privacy? A Traffic Analysis Perspective

Carmela González Troncoso, Sandra Deepthy Siby

Virtually every connection to an Internet service is preceded by a DNS lookup. Lookups are performed without any traffic-level protection, thus enabling manipulation, redirection, surveillance, and censorship. To address these issues, large organizations s ...
