Enhancing Personalized Federated Learning with Incentive Mechanisms: A Synergistic Integration of Shapley Value and GAN for Robust and Secure Collaboration
摘要
Federated Learning (FL) enables collaborative model training without centralized data sharing, but it faces challenges of data heterogeneity, fairness, and robustness in personalized federated learning (PFL). This paper proposes a novel PFL algorithm based on Shapley Value (SV) to fairly evaluate client contributions and enhance model robustness. First, it employs a Shapley Value-based client contribution evaluation mechanism to fairly quantify the marginal contributions of each client to the global model, ensuring equitable resource allocation and robustness against malicious participants; second, it leverages a Generative Adversarial Network (GAN)-driven synthetic data generation strategy to dynamically augment the training data of high-contributing clients with limited local data, thereby enhancing model generalization and alleviating data scarcity issues. Experiments on four datasets demonstrate superior accuracy and convergence speed compared to state-of-the-art methods, highlighting the algorithm’s potential for real-world applications, especially in healthcare. This work advances PFL’s theoretical understanding and practical applicability.
