Summary: Federated learning is a privacy-preserving learning technique for training a global model collaboratively while preserving local data privacy. However, recent research has shown that federated learning is vulnerable to inference attacks, particularly property inference attacks that can lead to severe privacy leakage. Existing property inference attack approaches do not perform well when the global model has converged or in dynamic federated learning scenarios. In this paper, a novel poisoning-assisted property inference attack (PAPI-attack) is proposed, which leverages the discriminative ability in periodic model updates to infer unintended information. A property-specific poisoning mechanism is presented to distort the decision boundary of the shared global model, inducing benign participants to disclose more sensitive property information. Extensive experiments demonstrate that PAPI-attack outperforms existing property inference attacks against federated learning.

Summary: Privacy protection and incentive mechanism are two fundamental problems in federated learning. Recent works have proposed differential privacy based privacy-preserving incentive mechanisms, but most of them only consider the privacy level as the incentive item, neglecting other factors such as data quantity and quality. Moreover, an untrusted server can infer sensitive information from bid costs. To solve these problems, this paper proposes a dual-privacy preserving and quality-aware incentive mechanism, PrivAim, for federated learning.
