An Incentive Mechanism for Federated Learning:A Continuous Zero-Determinant Strategy Approach

As a representative emerging machine learning tech-nique,federated learning(FL)has gained considerable popular-ity for its special feature of"making data available but not visi-ble".However,potential problems remain,including privacy breaches,imbalances in payment,and inequitable distribution.These shortcomings let devices reluctantly contribute relevant data to,or even refuse to participate in FL.Therefore,in the application of FL,an important but also challenging issue is to motivate as many participants as possible to provide high-quality data to FL.In this paper,we propose an incentive mechanism for FL based on the continuous zero-determinant(CZD)strategies from the perspective of game theory.We first model the interac-tion between the server and the devices during the FL process as a continuous iterative game.We then apply the CZD strategies for two players and then multiple players to optimize the social welfare of FL,for which we prove that the server can keep social welfare at a high and stable level.Subsequently,we design an incentive mechanism based on the CZD strategies to attract devices to contribute all of their high-accuracy data to FL.Finally,we perform simulations to demonstrate that our pro-posed CZD-based incentive mechanism can indeed generate high and stable social welfare in FL.
