Rethinking the Transferable Adversarial Attacks and Robust Defense in Federated Learning
The development of federated learning (FL) techniques has helped improve the privacy preservation of users' data and extended the applications of machine learning models. However, the involvement of a large number of users in FL also creates open opportunities for different adversaries, such as poisoning attacks, Byzantine attacks, and adversarial example attacks. Yet, recent research has disclosed that existing poisoning attacks and Byzantine attacks can not achieve satisfactory penetration in realistic FL scenarios caused by strong assumptions, \textit{e.g.,} client selection rate, and the ratio of malicious attackers. In this paper, the transferability of adversarial examples among dif...
