Lighthouse: Single-Server Secure Aggregation with O(1) Server-Committee Communication at Scale

본문 미리보기

Secure aggregation is a core primitive for privacy-preserving federated learning, enabling a server to compute aggregates of client updates without learning individual inputs. Recent protocols have explored committee-based designs to reduce client overhead and tolerate weakly connected participants. However, existing approaches still incur communication and computation costs that scale with the number of clients and/or the size of model updates. This becomes a serious bottleneck in interaction b
