Robust Federated Learning

Robust Federated Learning extends standard federated learning with Byzantine-tolerant aggregation rules that protect the global model against malicious, corrupted, or unreliable clients. Instead of naively averaging client gradients, robust aggregation methods such as coordinate-wise median or Krum filter out harmful updates so that a minority of adversarial participants cannot derail training.
