Description

Asynchronous longitudinal federal learning fair incentive mechanism method based on block chain
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of deep learning and privacy security, and particularly relates to an asynchronous longitudinal federal learning fair incentive mechanism method based on a block chain.
Background
In recent years, due to the large amount of data resources and abundant computing resources, deep learning has been widely applied in many fields, such as the fields of face recognition, automatic driving, machine translation, and the like, with excellent performance. Data privacy security is becoming a hot topic of concern for countries and regions, and numerous data security protection regulations are being enacted. Data islanding phenomenon among enterprises is increasingly aggravated due to the limitation of data privacy protection regulations, and therefore, exploring a machine learning technology for protecting privacy is becoming a focus of attention in academic circles and industrial circles. In order to solve the data island problem, distributed machine learning for protecting data privacy is provided, and the distributed machine learning is realized in a mode that data cannot go out of local and a model goes out of local.
The federal learning technology for protecting privacy is widely applied to real advertisement accurate delivery business. In the advertisement delivery service, according to the difference of data distribution of the participants, the federal learning is divided into horizontal federal learning, vertical federal learning and federal transfer learning. The horizontal federal learning is applicable to the scene that sample id spaces are different and feature spaces are the same among enterprises participating in advertisement putting, for example, a machine learning model is trained in cooperation among e-commerce with the same business from different regions. The longitudinal federated learning is suitable for scenes that sample id spaces are the same and feature spaces are different among enterprises participating in advertisement delivery, for example, two e-commerce platforms with different functions from the same region cooperate to train a machine learning model for accurate advertisement delivery. Federal transfer learning is applicable to scenarios where both the sample space and the feature space overlap less between enterprises. Due to the increasingly tight cooperation between enterprises from different domains (with the same feature space, different sample spaces), longitudinal federal learning is currently receiving a great deal of attention from both academic and industrial sectors.
The method is mainly characterized in that multiple enterprises jointly carry out longitudinal federal learning to achieve the purpose of accurate advertisement putting, and the process mainly comprises three steps: firstly, performing member alignment between participants (including the participants and a main participant) in an initialization process, wherein the participants use a local model to extract embedded features on a local data set; then sending the data to a cooperative party for aggregation and completing the remaining forward propagation by using a top model; and finally, according to the solved probability vector and the real label cross loss function of the main task, performing back propagation and updating the top model parameters and the local model parameters of the participants. The participant with the label in the enterprise participating in the joint training is defined as the main participant, and the participant with only the characteristic information is defined as the participant.
However, the existing longitudinal federal learning method applicable to advertisement accurate delivery business has 3 problems: 1. the algorithm in the longitudinal federal learning is synchronously designed, and the normal running of the advertisement putting service is difficult to maintain when part of equipment is down; 2. in the longitudinal federal learning, local models of participants are maintained locally by the participants, a test task is difficult to be initiated by a single participant in a test stage, and the service of advertisement putting is awakened and limited; 3. due to the lack of an incentive mechanism for the advertisement putting accuracy in the longitudinal federal learning method, the enthusiasm of the participants can influence the overall performance of the advertisement putting business.
The decentralized block chain technology provides a solution for solving the problem of accurate advertisement delivery based on longitudinal federal learning. The block chain technology is a distributed book, records data processing and query processes in a transparent mode, and has the characteristics of decentralization, traceability and non-tampering. Block chains can be classified into public chains, alliance chains, and private chains. The alliance chain adopts a mixed networking mechanism and has partial control right on nodes in the network. The alliance chain reserves the characteristics of partial transparency, openness, tamper resistance and the like of the public chain, has the characteristics of authority management, identity authentication and the like, is widely concerned, and mainly focuses on the application of the block chain in the aspects of data security, trusted authentication and the like.
In view of the wide application of the longitudinal federal learning in the field of precise advertisement delivery, the commercial cooperation among enterprises is involved, and the marginal calculation of the IOT device in the internet of things is involved, meanwhile, the privacy security of the algorithm needs to be strengthened and strengthened, and a set of incentive mechanism with clear reward and penalty needs to be designed to promote the participators in the longitudinal federal learning to provide higher-quality data for the joint training. Therefore, the asynchronous longitudinal federal learning method with the fair incentive mechanism is provided by combining the blockchain technology and has important value.

Firstly, selecting a participation mode according to the number of participants in a participation inference tag stage, and when the number of the participants in an inference stage is only 1, selecting a single mode by the participants; when the number of participants in the inference phase is greater than 1, the participants select the multi-party mode.
6.2) in the single mode, the participators download the trained top model from the new block, each participator inputs local data into the local model to obtain embedded representation information, then the embedded representation information is input into the top model to obtain a prediction result of the top model, and the local model and the top model are verified and reasoned according to the prediction result.
In the multi-party mode, a plurality of participants download the top model from the new block at the same time, each participant inputs local data into the respective local model to obtain embedded representation information, then the respective embedded representation information is input into the top model to obtain a prediction result of the top model, and the local model and the top model are verified and inferred according to the prediction result.
In single mode, participant j has a test sample characteristic XjDownloading test model information from the block chain, inputting the test sample characteristics into the test model to obtain a prediction label Pj. This process can be expressed as:
