Federated Learning Application Runtime Environment
Project description
NVIDIA FLARE
NVIDIA FLARE (NVIDIA Federated Learning Application Runtime Environment) is a domain-agnostic, open-source, extensible SDK that allows researchers and data scientists to adapt existing ML/DL workflows to a federated paradigm. It enables platform developers to build a secure, privacy-preserving offering for a distributed multi-party collaboration.
Features
FLARE is built on a componentized architecture that allows you to take federated learning workloads from research and simulation to real-world production deployment.
Application Features
- Support both deep learning and traditional machine learning algorithms (eg. PyTorch, TensorFlow, Scikit-learn, XGBoost etc.)
- Support horizontal and vertical federated learning
- Built-in Federated Learning algorithms (e.g., FedAvg, FedProx, FedOpt, Scaffold, Ditto, etc.)
- Support multiple server and client-controlled training workflows (e.g., scatter & gather, cyclic) and validation workflows (global model evaluation, cross-site validation)
- Support both data analytics (federated statistics) and machine learning lifecycle management
- Privacy preservation with differential privacy, homomorphic encryption, private set intersection (PSI)
From Simulation to Real-World
- FLARE Client API to transition seamlessly from ML/DL to FL with minimal code changes
- Simulator and POC mode for rapid development and prototyping
- Fully customizable and extensible components with modular design
- Deployment on cloud and on-premise
- Dashboard for project management and deployment
- Security enforcement through federated authorization and privacy policy
- Built-in support for system resiliency and fault tolerance
