Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Federated learning (FL), as a promising distributed learning paradigm, has put many efforts into distributed intrusion detection systems (IDS), for defending against various malicious attacks, such as SQL injection and DDoS attacks. Compared with traditional IDS based on centralized deep learning (DL), FL-based solutions require not to share users' raw data while yielding better detection performance. However, state-of-the-art FL-based methods still suffer from two key limitations: 1) insufficient detection performance on non-independent and identically distributed (non-IID) data, and 2) high communication and computational overheads due to the utilization of large-scale neural network models. In this paper, we propose a lightweight collaborative intrusion detection framework, called CoLGBM, the first of its kind in the regime of decentralized IDS, where decision tree and light gradient boosting machine (LGBM) are combined for constructing the detection scheme. The main insight is that through combining user-trained decision trees (each user's decision tree is derived from its own data with unique distribution), our framework can perform effectively on non-IID data while working efficiently for handling enormous samples. Compared with the current FL-based methods, our CoLGBM achieves higher accuracy and lower overhead on both IID and non-IID data. Extensive experiment results demonstrate our scheme with high-level performance.

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
