Energy-Efficient Offloading, Caching, and Resource Allocation for Blockchain-Assisted Low-Altitude Flying Networks: An Integrated Federated Learning and MAPPO Approach

In 6G low-altitude edge intelligent networks, the proliferation of delay-sensitive Internet of Things (IoT) services exacerbates mutual interference among IoT devices, thereby reducing the efficiency of resource allocation. To address this challenge, we propose a blockchain-assisted federated learning (FL)-based four-l...

OFDM-Assisted Over-the-Air Computation With Privacy Protection in Federated Learning

Federated Learning (FL) is an emerging distributed machine learning paradigm that protects data privacy by performing iterative local training and gradient aggregation across multiple devices and a central server. Over-the-air computation enables fast aggregation when multiple devices need to upload their local gradien...

Transmission-Efficient Federated Learning via Chessboard Convolutional Kernel

Reducing the communication cost to alleviate the contradiction between the limited bandwidth and huge transmitted parameters in Federated Learning (FL) is a persisting challenge. Since the transmission parameters obtained by vanilla convolution primarily rely on the product of kernel and channels, recent works (e.g., F...

Toward Fair Federated Edge Learning Through Prototype-Guided Distributed Adversarial Networks

Federated learning (FL) is a privacy-preserving machine learning (ML) paradigm that can learn models from distributed datasets owned by mobile terminals (MTs). However, ML models usually contain bias on some user groups/sensitive attributes (e.g., gender and race), which poses additional challenges on FL in real-world...

Traffic-Aware Mobility Management Based on Decentralized Federated Deep Reinforcement Learning in Satellite-Terrestrial Vehicular Networks

Excessive traffic generated by in-vehicle applications can cause congestion or overflow in the transmit buffer queue of connected autonomous vehicles (CAVs), leading to high queuing delays and even service outage in satellite-terrestrial vehicular networks (STVN). Therefore, a decentralized federated deep reinforcement...

Subspace-Guided Unlearning and Recovery: Poisoning Defense for Hierarchical Federated Learning in LEO Satellite Networks

Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite networks are increasingly adopting Federated Learning (FL) for privacy-preserving collaborative model training. However, this paradigm remains vulnerable to backdoor attacks where compromised satellites inject hidden triggers into their local model updates. Existing defenses are not suit...

UOIM: Online Incentive Design for Fair Hierarchical Federated Learning and Unlearning in Edge Computing

Hierarchical Federated Learning (HFL) has emerged as a promising evolution of Federated Learning (FL) where a shared model is learned collaboratively via hierarchical aggregation, and it requires federated unlearning to protect users’ right to be forgotten in the training process. However, most existing designs neglect...

FedSSMCoOp: SSM Encoders for light-weight Federated Prompt Learning for Few-shot Classification

Vision-Language Models (VLMs) have shown strong performance across a wide range of downstream vision tasks, thanks to the complementary information contained in the respective domains. Despite the performance gains, most of these approaches rely on aligning these domains using the cosine similarity metric, which fails...

Receiver-Domain Behavioral Probing for Backdoor-Resilient Federated GPS Spoofing Detection in UAV Networks

Federated learning lets a UAV fleet train a shared GPS spoofing detector without raw receiver data leaving any aircraft, and several recent UAV-FL designs weight each client by the validation accuracy it reports about itself. We show this self-report is an exploitable attack lever: two compromised clients of ten that p...
