Aggregation Strategies

Combine model updates from distributed clients with different aggregation algorithms.

FedAvg

Federated Averaging - the foundational algorithm for federated learning.

FedProx

Proximal term for handling heterogeneous data and systems.

FedNova

Normalized averaging handling variable local computation.

Scaffold

Stochastic Controlled Averaging correcting client drift.

FedOpt / FedAdam

Server-side adaptive optimization with Adam/Yogi/Adagrad.

Privacy & Security

Protect individual client data with cryptographic privacy guarantees.

Differential Privacy

Add calibrated noise to gradients guaranteeing individual privacy.

Secure Aggregation

Cryptographic protocol ensuring server sees only aggregate updates.

Gradient Compression

Compress gradient updates reducing communication and potential leakage.

Infrastructure

Manage clients, coordinate rounds, and handle system heterogeneity.

Client Manager

Register, authenticate, and manage federated learning participants.

Server Coordinator

Orchestrate training rounds, model distribution, and aggregation.

Model Versioning

Track global model versions and client-specific checkpoints.

Client Selection

Smart sampling of clients per round based on data quality and availability.

Federated learning with AiModelBuilder

C#
using AiDotNet;

// Train with federated learning using AiModelBuilder
var result = await new AiModelBuilder<float, float[], float>()
    .ConfigureModel(new NeuralNetwork<float>(
        inputSize: 784, hiddenSize: 128, outputSize: 10))
    .ConfigureFederatedLearning(new FederatedOptions(
        strategy: new FedAvg<float>(),
        rounds: 50, minClients: 2,
        privacyBudget: new DifferentialPrivacy(epsilon: 1.0)))
    .ConfigureOptimizer(new AdamOptimizer<float>())
    .BuildAsync(features, labels);

var prediction = result.Predict(newSample);
