Chameleon: Adapting to Peer Images for Planting Durable Backdoors in Federated Learning

Yanbo Dai, and Songze Li

In Proceedings of the 40th International Conference on Machine Learning , 2023

Abs Bib PDF

In a federated learning (FL) system, distributed clients upload their local models to a central server to aggregate into a global model. Malicious clients may plant backdoors into the global model through uploading poisoned local models, causing images with specific patterns to be misclassified into some target labels. Backdoors planted by current attacks are not durable, and vanish quickly once the attackers stop model poisoning. In this paper, we investigate the connection between the durability of FL backdoors and the relationships between benign images and poisoned images (i.e., the images whose labels are flipped to the target label during local training). Specifically, benign images with the original and the target labels of the poisoned images are found to have key effects on backdoor durability. Consequently, we propose a novel attack, Chameleon, which utilizes contrastive learning to further amplify such effects towards a more durable backdoor. Extensive experiments demonstrate that Chameleon significantly extends the backdoor lifespan over baselines by 1.2\times ∼4\times, for a wide range of image datasets, backdoor types, and model architectures.

FedVS: Straggler-Resilient and Privacy-Preserving Vertical Federated Learning for Split Models

Songze Li, Duanyi Yao, and Jin Liu

In Proceedings of the 40th International Conference on Machine Learning , 2023

Abs Bib PDF

In a vertical federated learning (VFL) system consisting of a central server and many distributed clients, the training data are vertically partitioned such that different features are privately stored on different clients. The problem of split VFL is to train a model split between the server and the clients. This paper aims to address two major challenges in split VFL: 1) performance degradation due to straggling clients during training; and 2) data and model privacy leakage from clients’ uploaded data embeddings. We propose FedVS to simultaneously address these two challenges. The key idea of FedVS is to design secret sharing schemes for the local data and models, such that information-theoretical privacy against colluding clients and curious server is guaranteed, and the aggregation of all clients’ embeddings is reconstructed losslessly, via decrypting computation shares from the non-straggling clients. Extensive experiments on various types of VFL datasets (including tabular, CV, and multi-view) demonstrate the universal advantages of FedVS in straggler mitigation and privacy protection over baseline protocols.

Active Few-shot Learning For RouteNet-Fermi

Xiaoyi Fu, Menghan Shao, Songze Li, and 1 more author

In Proceedings of the 2nd on Graph Neural Networking Workshop 2023 , Paris, France, 2023

Abs Bib

Machine-learning-based Network Modeling requires a compact training data set that contains diversified network topology and configurations covering different congestion levels. We formalize the problem of modeling network delay using Multi-stage Message Passing Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) under the constraints of a limited number of training samples and a limited number of nodes for the topology of each sample as a few-shot learning problem. To tackle it, we propose an active learning algorithm that selectively randomizes initial features that are invariant of node numbers and then uses pool-based uncertainty sampling for selecting the approximated optimal network topology based on the Shannon entropy. The approximation could be theoretically proven and confirmed with experimental results.

Coded Merkle Tree: Solving Data Availability Attacks in Blockchains

Mingchao Yu, Saeid Sahraei, Songze Li, and 3 more authors

In Financial Cryptography and Data Security , 2020

Abs Bib PDF

In this paper, we propose coded Merkle tree (CMT), a novel hash accumulator that offers a constant-cost protection against data availability attacks in blockchains, even if the majority of the network nodes are malicious. A CMT is constructed using a family of sparse erasure codes on each layer, and is recovered by iteratively applying a peeling-decoding technique that enables a compact proof for data availability attack on any layer. Our algorithm enables any node to verify the full availability of any data block generated by the system by just downloading a }}\backslashvarTheta (1)}}byte block hash commitment and randomly sampling }}\backslashvarTheta (\backslashlog b)}}bytes, where b is the size of the data block. With the help of only one connected honest node in the system, our method also allows any node to verify any tampering of the coded Merkle tree by just downloading }}\backslashvarTheta (\backslashlog b)}}bytes. We provide a modular library for CMT in Rust and Python and demonstrate its efficacy inside the Parity Bitcoin client.

Lagrange Coded Computing: Optimal Design for Resiliency, Security, and Privacy

Qian Yu, Songze Li, Netanel Raviv, and 3 more authors

In Proceedings of the Twenty-Second International Conference on Artificial Intelligence and Statistics , 2019

Abs Bib PDF

We consider a scenario involving computations over a massive dataset stored distributedly across multiple workers, which is at the core of distributed learning algorithms. We propose Lagrange Coded Computing (LCC), a new framework to simultaneously provide (1) resiliency against stragglers that may prolong computations; (2) security against Byzantine (or malicious) workers that deliberately modify the computation for their benefit; and (3) (information-theoretic) privacy of the dataset amidst possible collusion of workers. LCC, which leverages the well-known Lagrange polynomial to create computation redundancy in a novel coded form across workers, can be applied to any computation scenario in which the function of interest is an arbitrary multivariate polynomial of the input dataset, hence covering many computations of interest in machine learning. LCC significantly generalizes prior works to go beyond linear computations. It also enables secure and private computing in distributed settings, improving the computation and communication efficiency of the state-of-the-art. Furthermore, we prove the optimality of LCC by showing that it achieves the optimal tradeoff between resiliency, security, and privacy, i.e., in terms of tolerating the maximum number of stragglers and adversaries, and providing data privacy against the maximum number of colluding workers. Finally, we show via experiments on Amazon EC2 that LCC speeds up the conventional uncoded implementation of distributed least-squares linear regression by up to 13.43\times, and also achieves a 2.36\times-12.65\times speedup over the state-of-the-art straggler mitigation strategies.

Coded State Machine – Scaling State Machine Execution under Byzantine Faults

Songze Li, Saeid Sahraei, Mingchao Yu, and 3 more authors

In Proceedings of the 2019 ACM Symposium on Principles of Distributed Computing , Toronto ON, Canada, 2019

Abs Bib PDF

We introduce Coded State Machine (CSM), an information-theoretic framework to securely and efficiently execute multiple state machines on Byzantine nodes. The standard method of solving this problem is using State Machine Replication, which achieves high security at the cost of low efficiency. CSM simultaneously achieves the optimal linear scaling in storage, throughput, and security with increasing network size. The storage is scaled via the design of Lagrange coded states and coded input commands that require the same storage size as their origins. The computational efficiency is scaled using a novel delegation algorithm, called INTERMIX, which is an information-theoretically verifiable matrix-vector multiplication algorithm of independent interest.
