CaPriDe Learning

This repository is an implementation of CVPR 2023 paper titled: CaPriDe Learning: Confidential and Private Decentralized Learning based on Encryption-friendly Distillation Loss.

Dependencies

pip install -r requirements.txt

Run CaPriDe Learning

To train 5 models in CaPriDe learning protocol: (25 epochs correspond to the number of local training epochs.) Default dataset: CIFAR-10 (Homogeneous setting). To set the data setting to heterogeneous, simply change data_loader.py file, get_cifar10_train_loader() function.

python3 main.py --model_num 5 --is_train 1 --init_lr 0.1 --gamma 0.1 --use_gpu 1 --epochs 25 --resume 0 --save_name capride_cifar10_iid_p5_model 

Datasets

CIFAR-10 and CIFAR-100 datasets will be downloaded directly from torchvision.

Encrypted Inference

To enable FHE scheme, refer to this link. To install it, you need to have Linux based Docker container (as a programming language you can choose either Python or C++).
