Explainability in Federated Learning

Explainability in Federated Learning offers a comprehensive exploration of integrating explainable AI (XAI) into federated learning (FL) systems. The book begins by outlining the fundamentals of FL and XAI before delving into their intersection highlighting the challenges and benefits of interpretability in decentralized environments. It presents various explainability techniques tailored to FL emphasizing personalization handling of heterogeneous data and operation in resource-constrained settings. Key chapters address trust fairness and transparency supported by real-world case studies and visualization tools. Ethical legal and social implications are discussed alongside adversarial perspectives. The book concludes with benchmarking strategies and future research directions serving as a vital guide for researchers developers and policymakers aiming to build transparent trustworthy FL models.
