Bases: FedAvg

Bulyan strategy.

Implementation based on https://arxiv.org/abs/1802.07927.

Parameters:

  • fraction_fit (float, optional) – Fraction of clients used during training. Defaults to 1.0.

  • fraction_evaluate (float, optional) – Fraction of clients used during validation. Defaults to 1.0.

  • min_fit_clients (int, optional) – Minimum number of clients used during training. Defaults to 2.

  • min_evaluate_clients (int, optional) – Minimum number of clients used during validation. Defaults to 2.

  • min_available_clients (int, optional) – Minimum number of total clients in the system. Defaults to 2.

  • num_malicious_clients (int, optional) – Number of malicious clients in the system. Defaults to 0.

  • evaluate_fn (Optional[Callable[[int, NDArrays, Dict[str, Scalar]], Optional[Tuple[float, Dict[str, Scalar]]]]]) – Optional function used for validation. Defaults to None.

  • on_fit_config_fn (Callable[[int], Dict[str, Scalar]], optional) – Function used to configure training. Defaults to None.

  • on_evaluate_config_fn (Callable[[int], Dict[str, Scalar]], optional) – Function used to configure validation. Defaults to None.

  • accept_failures (bool, optional) – Whether or not accept rounds containing failures. Defaults to True.

  • initial_parameters (Parameters, optional) – Initial global model parameters.

  • first_aggregation_rule (Callable) – Byzantine resilient aggregation rule that is used as the first step of the Bulyan (e.g., Krum)

  • **aggregation_rule_kwargs (Any) – arguments to the first_aggregation rule
