This position is part of a joint project on secure federated learning funded by the Swedish Agency for Innovation Systems (Vinnova) and led by Scaleout Systems AB together with Uppsala University. The postdoctoral researcher will be jointly supervised by Associate Prof. André Teixeira (Uppsala University) and Salman Toor (CTO at Scaleout, Associate Prof. at Uppsala University).
In this project, our focus will be on security and privacy-enhancing techniques for federated machine learning. The approach is centered around developing new theories and methodologies to achieve secure aggregation of federated machine learning models. In particular, we are interested in understanding how client sampling, model partitioning, and aggregation strategies affect and can be integrated into formal security analysis.
We are looking for excellent researchers to join us and contribute to an ambitious, collaborative, curiosity-driven, and dynamic environment that drives excellent research!
