Reparable threshold Paillier encryption scheme for federated learning
摘要
Threshold Paillier encryption scheme finds extensive application in the context of federated learning. However, the issue of client dropout frequently arises within the context of federated learning, rendering the conventional threshold Paillier encryption scheme ineffective for data decryption. To address this issue, this paper introduces a (N, k, d)-reparable threshold Paillier encryption scheme by combining the reparable Shamir secret-sharing scheme with the Paillier encryption scheme. The proposed scheme has demonstrated several valuable capabilities. Specifically, we initially establish the security of the secret-sharing property of this scheme, namely, any group of k participants can collaboratively recover the private key, while
