xaynet_core provides basic building blocks for implementing the
Privacy-Enhancing Technology (PET), a privacy preserving
protocol for federated machine learning. Download the whitepaper
for an introduction.
Modules§
- common
- crypto
- Wrappers around some of the sodiumoxide crypto primitives.
- mask
- Masking, aggregation and unmasking of models.
- message
- The messages of the PET protocol.
- testutils
testutils
Structs§
- Init
Error - An error related to insufficient system entropy for secrets at program startup.
Type Aliases§
- Coordinator
Public Key - A public encryption key that identifies a coordinator.
- Coordinator
Secret Key - A secret encryption key that belongs to the public key of a coordinator.
- Local
Seed Dict - Local seed dictionaries are sent by update participants. They contain the participant’s masking seed, encrypted with the ephemeral public key of each sum participant.
- Participant
Public Key - A public signature key that identifies a participant.
- Participant
Secret Key - A secret signature key that belongs to the public key of a participant.
- Participant
Task Signature - A signature to prove a participant’s eligibility for a task.
- Seed
Dict - A dictionary created during the update phase of the protocol. The global seed dictionary is built from the local seed dictionaries sent by the update participants. It maps each sum participant to the encrypted masking seeds of all the update participants.
- SumDict
- A dictionary created during the sum phase of the protocol. It maps the public key of every sum participant to the ephemeral public key generated by that sum participant.
- SumParticipant
Ephemeral Public Key - A public encryption key generated by a sum participant. It is used by the update participants to encrypt their masking seed for each sum participant.
- SumParticipant
Ephemeral Secret Key - The secret counterpart of
SumParticipantEphemeralPublicKey - SumParticipant
Public Key - A public signature key that identifies a sum participant.
- SumParticipant
Secret Key - A secret signature key that belongs to the public key of a sum participant.
- Update
Participant Public Key - A public signature key that identifies an update participant.
- Update
Participant Secret Key - A secret signature key that belongs to the public key of an update participant.
- Update
Seed Dict - Values of
SeedDict. Sent to sum participants.
