In this paper, we propose a blockchain-based federated learning framework with client selection and a round-based training scheme (BFCSR). The framework contains three modules to help federated learning achieve better performance. The blockchain module provides defenses against data tampering and single-point failure. The client selection module selects high-quality clients to participate in the training. The round-based training module puts a time threshold on the training time to reduce the clients’ waiting time, improving overall performance. Comparison experiments to several baselines and results show that our framework performs better in various experiment settings.

摘要

In this paper, we propose a blockchain-based federated learning framework with client selection and a round-based training scheme (BFCSR). The framework contains three modules to help federated learning achieve better performance. The blockchain module provides defenses against data tampering and single-point failure. The client selection module selects high-quality clients to participate in the training. The round-based training module puts a time threshold on the training time to reduce the clients’ waiting time, improving overall performance. Comparison experiments to several baselines and results show that our framework performs better in various experiment settings.
