Privacy-Preserving Federated Learning: Integrating Zero-Knowledge Proofs in Scalable Distributed Architectures
Researchers present a novel federated learning architecture that integrates Zero-Knowledge Proofs to validate distributed machine learning computations while preserving privacy. The system addresses model poisoning attacks and scalability bottlenecks, achieving 94.2% accuracy retention across 1,000 parallel nodes—bridging cryptographic security with high-performance distributed AI.
