A Practical Influence Approximation for Privacy-Preserving Data Filtering in Federated Learning

Boi Faltings, Panayiotis Danassis, Ljubomir Rokvic

Federated Learning by nature is susceptible to low-quality, corrupted, or even malicious data that can severely degrade the quality of the learned model. Traditional techniques for data valuation cannot be applied as the data is never revealed. We present ...
