AEFL: Anonymous and Efficient Federated Learning in Vehicle–Road Cooperation Systems With Augmented Intelligence of Things
Bibliographic record
Abstract
As the Augmented Intelligence of Things (AIoT) advances within vehicle-road coordination systems, challenges related to road traffic data transmission and processing are being increasingly addressed. However, this progress also brings significant risks of privacy data leakage. Federated learning (FL), a distributed machine learning paradigm, effectively safeguards client data privacy by allowing multiple participants to collaboratively train models while keeping their data localized. Despite its benefits, FL faces challenges, such as model parameter leakage and Byzantine attacks. To tackle these issues, this article introduces an anonymous and efficient FL framework for vehicle-road coordination systems (AEFL), designed to ensure a secure and reliable vehicle data transmission process. This architecture incorporates a novel group pairing onion routing protocol, which leverages pairing cryptography principles for hierarchical data encryption. During the routing process, relay group nodes decrypt the corresponding layer, ensuring both data confidentiality and node anonymity. Additionally, a sampling method is proposed to accurately identify Byzantine vehicle nodes, enhancing the precision of FL aggregation without compromising overall model performance. Experimental results show that AEFL outperforms the classic TOR anonymous routing protocol, achieving a 100% message delivery rate more quickly. Under the same conditions, the anonymity of the source node and the destination node improves by 3.9% and 1.9%, respectively. When half of the nodes are compromised, path anonymity can be increased by 24.8%. Furthermore, our framework excels in FL aggregation efficiency, with a Byzantine adversary detection accuracy of up to 99%.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
