Theoretical review highlights privacy vulnerabilities and governance gaps in federated learning frameworks, indicating the need for balanced defenses and ethical standards.
Federated learning, as the core paradigm of distributed machine learning, implements multi-party collaborative modeling with a “data stationary, model dynamic” architecture, providing a technical path for solving the dual dilemma of data silos and privacy protection. However, the distributed nature and parameter interaction mechanism of federated learning pose new privacy leakage risks such as gradient reversal, member inference, and model poisoning. Existing defense mechanisms suffer from imbalanced privacy performance trade-offs, insufficient cross scenario adaptability, and lack of a systematic ethical governance framework.
