-### Federated Learning with MPC
-
-
+There are mainly two components in PaddleFL: **Data Parallel** and **Federated Learning with MPC (PFM)**.
-Paddle FL MPC (PFM) is a framework for privacy-preserving deep learning based on PaddlePaddle. It follows the same running mechanism and programming paradigm with PaddlePaddle, while using secure multi-party computation (MPC) to enable secure training and prediction.
+With Data Parallel, distributed data holders can finish their Federated Learning tasks based on common horizontal federated strategies, such as FedAvg, DPSGD, etc.
-With PFM, it is easy to train models or conduct prediction as on PaddlePaddle over encrypted data, without the need for cryptography expertise. Furthermore, the rich industry-oriented models and algorithms built on PaddlePaddle can be smoothly migrated to secure versions on PFM with little effort.
+Besides, PFM is implemented based on secure multi-party computation (MPC) to enable secure training and prediction. As a key product of PaddleFL, PFM intrinsically supports federated learning well, including horizontal, vertical and transfer learning scenarios. Users with little cryptography expertise can also train models or conduct prediction on encrypted data.
-As a key product of PaddleFL, PFM intrinsically supports federated learning well, including horizontal, vertical and transfer learning scenarios. It provides both provable security (semantic security) and competitive performance.

### Federated Learning with MPC
+
+
Paddle FL MPC implements secure training and inference tasks based on the underlying MPC protocol like ABY3[11], which is a high efficient three-party computing model.
-In ABY3, participants can be classified into roles of Input Party (IP), Computing Party (CP) and Result Party (RP). Input Parties (e.g., the training data/model owners) encrypt and distribute data or models to Computing Parties. Computing Parties (e.g., the VM on the cloud) conduct training or inference tasks based on specific MPC protocols, being restricted to see only the encrypted data or models, and thus guarantee the data privacy. When the computation is completed, one or more Result Parties (e.g., data owners or specified third-party) receive the encrypted results from Computing Parties, and reconstruct the plaintext results. Roles can be overlapped, e.g., a data owner can also act as a computing party.

Roles can be overlapped, e.g., a data owner can also act as a computing party.
A full training or inference process in PFM consists of mainly three phases: data preparation, training/inference, and result reconstruction.
#### A. Data preparation
-##### 1. Private data alignment
-
-PFM enables data owners (IPs) to find out records with identical keys (like UUID) without revealing private data to each other. This is especially useful in the vertical learning cases where segmented features with same keys need to be identified and aligned from all owners in a private manner before training. Using the OT-based PSI (Private Set Intersection) algorithm, PFM can perform private alignment at a speed of up to 60k records per second.
-
-##### 2. Encryption and distribution
+- **Private data alignment**: PFM enables data owners (IPs) to find out records with identical keys (like UUID) without revealing private data to each other. This is especially useful in the vertical learning cases where segmented features with same keys need to be identified and aligned from all owners in a private manner before training.
-In PFM, data and models from IPs will be encrypted using Secret-Sharing[10], and then be sent to CPs, via directly transmission or distributed storage like HDFS. Each CP can only obtain one share of each piece of data, and thus is unable to recover the original value in the Semi-honest model.
+- **Encryption and distribution**: In PFM, data and models from IPs will be encrypted using Secret-Sharing[10], and then be sent to CPs, via directly transmission or distributed storage like HDFS. Each CP can only obtain one share of each piece of data, and thus is unable to recover the original value in the Semi-honest model.
#### B. Training/inference
-
+A PFM program is exactly a PaddlePaddle program, and will be executed as normal PaddlePaddle programs. Before training/inference, user needs to choose a MPC protocol, define a machine learning model and their training strategies. Typical machine learning operators are provided in `paddle_fl.mpc` over encrypted data, of which the instances are created and run in order by Executor during run-time.
-As in PaddlePaddle, a training or inference job can be separated into the compile-time phase and the run-time phase:
-
-##### 1. Compile time
-
-* **MPC environment specification**: a user needs to choose a MPC protocol, and configure the network settings. In current version, PFM provides only the "ABY3" protocol. More protocol implementation will be provided in future.
-* **User-defined job program**: a user can define the machine learning model structure and the training strategies (or inference task) in a PFM program, using the secure operators.
-
-##### 2. Run time
-
-A PFM program is exactly a PaddlePaddle program, and will be executed as normal PaddlePaddle programs. For example, in run-time a PFM program will be transpiled into ProgramDesc, and then be passed to and run by the Executor. The main concepts in the run-time phase are as follows:
-
-* **Computing nodes**: a computing node is an entity corresponding to a Computing Party. In real deployment, it can be a bare-metal machine, a cloud VM, a docker or even a process. PFM requires exactly three computing nodes in each run, which is determined by the underlying ABY3 protocol. A PFM program will be deployed and run in parallel on all three computing nodes.
-* **Operators using MPC**: PFM provides typical machine learning operators in `paddle_fl.mpc` over encrypted data. Such operators are implemented upon PaddlePaddle framework, based on MPC protocols like ABY3. Like other PaddlePaddle operators, in run time, instances of PFM operators are created and run in order by Executor.
+For more information of Training/inference phase, please refer to the following [doc](./docs/source/md/mpc_train.md).
#### C. Result reconstruction
Upon completion of the secure training (or inference) job, the models (or prediction results) will be output by CPs in encrypted form. Result Parties can collect the encrypted results, decrypt them using the tools in PFM, and deliver the plaintext results to users.

PFM的整个训练及推理过程主要由三个部分组成:数据准备,训练/推理,结果解析。
#### A. 数据准备
-##### 1. 私有数据对齐
+- **私有数据对齐**: PFM允许数据拥有方(数据方)在不泄露自己数据的情况下,找出多方共有的样本集合。此功能在纵向联邦学习中非常必要,因为其要求多个数据方在训练前进行数据对齐,并且保护用户的数据隐私。
+- **数据加密及分发**:在PFM中,数据方将数据和模型用秘密共享[10]的方法加密,然后用直接传输或者数据库存储的方式传到计算方。每个计算方只会拿到数据的一部分,因此计算方无法还原真实数据。

-
-#### B. 训练及推理
-
-
-
-像PaddlePaddle一样,训练和推理任务可以分为编译阶段和运行阶段。
-
-##### 1. 编译时
-
-* **确定MPC环境**:用户需要指定用到的MPC协议,并配置网络环境。现有版本的Paddle Encrypted只支持"ABY3"协议。更多的协议将在后续版本中支持。
-* **用户定义训练任务**:用户可以根据PFM提供的安全接口,定义集齐学习网络以及训练策略。
-##### 2. 运行时
-
-一个Paddle Encrypted程序实际上就是一个PaddlePaddle程序。在运行时,PFM的程序将会转变为PaddlePaddle中的ProgramDesc,并交给Executor运行。以下是运行阶段的主要概念:
-* **运算节点**:计算节点是与计算方相对应的实体。在实际部署中,它可以是裸机、云虚拟机、docker甚至进程。PFM在每次运行中只需要三个计算节点,这由底层ABY3协议决定。Paddle Encrypted程序将在所有三个计算节点上并行部署和运行。
-* **基于MPC的算子**:PFM 为操作加密数据提供了特殊的算子,这些算子在PaddlePaddle框架中实现,基于像ABY3一样的MPC协议。像PaddlePaddle中一样,在运行时PFM的算子将被创建并按照顺序执行。
+请参考以下[文档](./docs/source/md/mpc_train_cn.md), 以获得更多关于训练阶段的信息。
#### C. 结果重构
安全训练和推理工作完成后,模型(或预测结果)将由计算方以加密形式输出。结果方可以收集加密的结果,使用PFM中的工具对其进行解密,并将明文结果传递给用户。

+## Instructions for PaddleFL-MPC UCI Housing Demo
+
+([简体中文](./README_CN.md)|English)
+
+This document introduces how to run UCI Housing demo based on Paddle-MPC, which has two ways of running, i.e., single machine and multi machines.
+
+### 1. Running on Single Machine
+
+#### (1). Prepare Data
+
+Generate encrypted data utilizing `generate_encrypted_data()` in `process_data.py` script. For example, users can write the following code into a python script named `prepare.py`, and then run the script with command `python prepare.py`.
+
+```python
+import process_data
+process_data.generate_encrypted_data()
+```
+
+Encrypted data files of feature and label would be generated and saved in `/tmp` directory. Different suffix names are used for these files to indicate the ownership of different computation parties. For instance, a file named `house_feature.part0` means it is a feature file of party 0.
+
+#### (2). Launch Demo with A Shell Script
+
+Launch demo with the `run_standalone.sh` script. The concrete command is:
+
+```bash
+bash run_standalone.sh uci_housing_demo.py
+```
+
+The loss with cypher text format will be displayed on screen while training. At the same time, the loss data would be also save in `/tmp` directory, and the format of file name is similar to what is described in Step 1.
+
+Besides, predictions would be made in this demo once training is finished. The predictions with cypher text format would also be save in `/tmp` directory.
+
+Finally, using `load_decrypt_data()` in `process_data.py` script, this demo would decrypt and print the loss and predictions, which can be compared with related results of Paddle plain text model.
+
+**Note** that remember to delete the loss and prediction files in `/tmp` directory generated in last running, in case of any influence on the decrypted results of current running. For simplifying users operations, we provide the following commands in `run_standalone.sh`, which can delete the files mentioned above when running this script.
+
+```bash
+# remove temp data generated in last time
+LOSS_FILE="/tmp/uci_loss.*"
+PRED_FILE="/tmp/uci_prediction.*"
+if [ "$LOSS_FILE" ]; then
+ rm -rf $LOSS_FILE
+fi
+
+if [ "$PRED_FILE" ]; then
+ rm -rf $PRED_FILE
+fi
+```
+
+
+
+### 2. Running on Multi Machines
+
+#### (1). Prepare Data
+
+Data owner encrypts data. Concrete operations are consistent with “Prepare Data” in “Running on Single Machine”.
+
+#### (2). Distribute Encrypted Data
+
+According to the suffix of file name, distribute encrypted data files to `/tmp ` directories of all 3 computation parties. For example, send `house_feature.part0` and `house_label.part0` to `/tmp` of party 0 with `scp` command.
+
+#### (3). Modify uci_housing_demo.py
+
+Each computation party makes the following modifications on `uci_housing_demo.py` according to the environment of machine.
+
+* Modify IP Information
+
+ Modify `localhost` in the following code as the IP address of the machine.
+
+ ```python
+ pfl_mpc.init("aby3", int(role), "localhost", server, int(port))
+ ```
+
+* Comment Out Codes for Single Machine Running
+
+ Comment out the following codes which are used when running on single machine.
+
+ ```python
+ import process_data
+ print("uci_loss:")
+ process_data.load_decrypt_data("/tmp/uci_loss", (1,))
+ print("prediction:")
+ process_data.load_decrypt_data("/tmp/uci_prediction", (BATCH_SIZE,))
+ ```
+
+#### (4). Launch Demo on Each Party
+
+**Note** that Redis service is necessary for demo running. Remember to clear the cache of Redis server before launching demo on each computation party, in order to avoid any negative influences caused by the cached records in Redis. The following command can be used for clear Redis, where REDIS_BIN is the executable binary of redis-cli, SERVER and PORT represent the IP and port of Redis server respectively.
+
+```
+$REDIS_BIN -h $SERVER -p $PORT flushall
+```
+
+Launch demo on each computation party with the following command,
+
+```
+$PYTHON_EXECUTABLE uci_housing_demo.py $PARTY_ID $SERVER $PORT
+```
+
+where PYTHON_EXECUTABLE is the python which installs PaddleFL, PARTY_ID is the ID of computation party, which is 0, 1, or 2, SERVER and PORT represent the IP and port of Redis server respectively.
+
+Similarly, training loss with cypher text format would be printed on the screen of each computation party. And at the same time, the loss and predictions would be saved in `/tmp` directory.
+
+**Note** that remember to delete the loss and prediction files in `/tmp` directory generated in last running, in case of any influence on the decrypted results of current running.
+
+#### (5). Decrypt Loss and Prediction Data
+
+Each computation party sends `uci_loss.part` and `uci_prediction.part` files in `/tmp` directory to the `/tmp` directory of data owner. Data owner decrypts and gets the plain text of loss and predictions with ` load_decrypt_data()` in `process_data.py`.
+
+For example, the following code can be written into a python script to decrypt and print training loss.
+
+```python
+import process_data
+print("uci_loss:")
+process_data.load_decrypt_data("/tmp/uci_loss", (1,))
+```
+
+And the following code can be written into a python script to decrypt and print predictions.
+
+```python
+import process_data
+print("prediction:")
+process_data.load_decrypt_data("/tmp/uci_prediction", (BATCH_SIZE,))
+```

-## On Going and Future Work
+### Federated Learning with MPC
+
+
+
+Paddle FL MPC implements secure training and inference tasks based on the underlying MPC protocol like ABY3[11], which is a high efficient three-party computing model.
+
+In ABY3, participants can be classified into roles of Input Party (IP), Computing Party (CP) and Result Party (RP). Input Parties (e.g., the training data/model owners) encrypt and distribute data or models to Computing Parties. Computing Parties (e.g., the VM on the cloud) conduct training or inference tasks based on specific MPC protocols, being restricted to see only the encrypted data or models, and thus guarantee the data privacy. When the computation is completed, one or more Result Parties (e.g., data owners or specified third-party) receive the encrypted results from Computing Parties, and reconstruct the plaintext results. Roles can be overlapped, e.g., a data owner can also act as a computing party.
+
+A full training or inference process in PFM consists of mainly three phases: data preparation, training/inference, and result reconstruction.
+
+#### A. Data preparation
+
+- **Private data alignment**: PFM enables data owners (IPs) to find out records with identical keys (like UUID) without revealing private data to each other. This is especially useful in the vertical learning cases where segmented features with same keys need to be identified and aligned from all owners in a private manner before training.
+
+- **Encryption and distribution**: In PFM, data and models from IPs will be encrypted using Secret-Sharing[10], and then be sent to CPs, via directly transmission or distributed storage like HDFS. Each CP can only obtain one share of each piece of data, and thus is unable to recover the original value in the Semi-honest model.
+
+#### B. Training/inference
+
+A PFM program is exactly a PaddlePaddle program, and will be executed as normal PaddlePaddle programs. Before training/inference, user needs to choose a MPC protocol, define a machine learning model and their training strategies. Typical machine learning operators are provided in `paddle_fl.mpc` over encrypted data, of which the instances are created and run in order by Executor during run-time.
+
+
+#### C. Result reconstruction
+
+Upon completion of the secure training (or inference) job, the models (or prediction results) will be output by CPs in encrypted form. Result Parties can collect the encrypted results, decrypt them using the tools in PFM, and deliver the plaintext results to users.
+
+# On Going and Future Work
+
+- Vertial Federated Learning will support more algorithms.
+
+- Add K8S deployment scheme for Paddle Encrypted.
-- Experimental benchmark with public datasets in federated learning settings.
+- FL mobile simulator will be open sourced in following versions.
-- Federated Learning Systems deployment methods in Kubernetes.
-- Vertical Federated Learning Strategies and more horizontal federated learning strategies will be open sourced.

+# Instructions for Federated Learning with MPC
+
+A PFM program is exactly a PaddlePaddle program, and will be executed as normal PaddlePaddle programs. Before training/inference, user needs to choose a MPC protocol, define a machine learning model and their training strategies. Typical machine learning operators are provided in paddle_fl.mpc over encrypted data, of which the instances are created and run in order by Executor during run-time.
+
+Below is an example for complish an vertial Federated Learning with MPC
+
+```python
+import sys
+import numpy as np
+import time
+
+import paddle
+import paddle.fluid as fluid
+import paddle_fl.mpc as pfl_mpc
+import paddle_fl.mpc.data_utils.aby3 as aby3
+
+# define your role number(0, 1, 2) and the address of redis server
+role, server, port = sys.argv[1], sys.argv[2], sys.argv[3]
+
+# specify the protocal and initialize the environment
+pfl_mpc.init("aby3", int(role), "localhost", server, int(port))
+role = int(role)
+
+# data preprocessing
+BATCH_SIZE = 10
+
+feature_reader = aby3.load_aby3_shares("/tmp/house_feature", id=role, shape=(13, ))
+label_reader = aby3.load_aby3_shares("/tmp/house_label", id=role, shape=(1, ))
+batch_feature = aby3.batch(feature_reader, BATCH_SIZE, drop_last=True)
+batch_label = aby3.batch(label_reader, BATCH_SIZE, drop_last=True)
+
+x = pfl_mpc.data(name='x', shape=[BATCH_SIZE, 13], dtype='int64')
+y = pfl_mpc.data(name='y', shape=[BATCH_SIZE, 1], dtype='int64')
+
+# async data loader
+loader = fluid.io.DataLoader.from_generator(feed_list=[x, y], capacity=BATCH_SIZE)
+batch_sample = paddle.reader.compose(batch_feature, batch_label)
+place = fluid.CPUPlace()
+loader.set_batch_generator(batch_sample, places=place)
+
+# define your model
+y_pre = pfl_mpc.layers.fc(input=x, size=1)
+
+infer_program = fluid.default_main_program().clone(for_test=False)
+
+cost = pfl_mpc.layers.square_error_cost(input=y_pre, label=y)
+avg_loss = pfl_mpc.layers.mean(cost)
+optimizer = pfl_mpc.optimizer.SGD(learning_rate=0.001)
+optimizer.minimize(avg_loss)
+
+# give the path to store training loss
+loss_file = "/tmp/uci_loss.part{}".format(role)
+
+# train
+exe = fluid.Executor(place)
+exe.run(fluid.default_startup_program())
+epoch_num = 20
+

+ step = 0
+
+ # Method 1: feed data directly
+ # for feature, label in zip(batch_feature(), batch_label()):

+
+ # Method 2: feed data via loader
+ for sample in loader():
+ mpc_loss = exe.run(feed=sample, fetch_list=[avg_loss])
+
+ if step % 50 == 0:
+ print('Epoch={}, Step={}, Loss={}'.format(epoch_id, step,
+ mpc_loss))
+ with open(loss_file, 'ab') as f:
+ f.write(np.array(mpc_loss).tostring())
+ step += 1
+
+end_time = time.time()

+## Training/inference in MPC
+
+
+
+As in PaddlePaddle, a training or inference job can be separated into the compile-time phase and the run-time phase:
+
+#### Compile time
+
+* **MPC environment specification**: a user needs to choose a MPC protocol, and configure the network settings. In current version, PFM provides only the "ABY3" protocol. More protocol implementation will be provided in future.
+* **User-defined job program**: a user can define the machine learning model structure and the training strategies (or inference task) in a PFM program, using the secure operators.
+
+#### Run time
+
+A PFM program is exactly a PaddlePaddle program, and will be executed as normal PaddlePaddle programs. For example, in run-time a PFM program will be transpiled into ProgramDesc, and then be passed to and run by the Executor. The main concepts in the run-time phase are as follows:
+
+* **Computing nodes**: a computing node is an entity corresponding to a Computing Party. In real deployment, it can be a bare-metal machine, a cloud VM, a docker or even a process. PFM requires exactly three computing nodes in each run, which is determined by the underlying ABY3 protocol. A PFM program will be deployed and run in parallel on all three computing nodes.
+* **Operators using MPC**: PFM provides typical machine learning operators in `paddle_fl.mpc` over encrypted data. Such operators are implemented upon PaddlePaddle framework, based on MPC protocols like ABY3. Like other PaddlePaddle operators, in run time, instances of PFM operators are created and run in order by Executor.

+## MPC 训练及推理
+
+
+
+像PaddlePaddle一样,训练和推理任务可以分为编译阶段和运行阶段。
+
+##### 1. 编译时
+
+* **确定MPC环境**:用户需要指定用到的MPC协议,并配置网络环境。现有版本的Paddle Encrypted只支持"ABY3"协议。更多的协议将在后续版本中支持。
+* **用户定义训练任务**:用户可以根据PFM提供的安全接口,定义集齐学习网络以及训练策略。
+##### 2. 运行时
+
+一个Paddle Encrypted程序实际上就是一个PaddlePaddle程序。在运行时,PFM的程序将会转变为PaddlePaddle中的ProgramDesc,并交给Executor运行。以下是运行阶段的主要概念:
+* **运算节点**:计算节点是与计算方相对应的实体。在实际部署中,它可以是裸机、云虚拟机、docker甚至进程。PFM在每次运行中只需要三个计算节点,这由底层ABY3协议决定。Paddle Encrypted程序将在所有三个计算节点上并行部署和>运行。
+* **基于MPC的算子**:PFM 为操作加密数据提供了特殊的算子,这些算子在PaddlePaddle框架中实现,基于像ABY3一样的MPC协议。像PaddlePaddle中一样,在运行时PFM的算子将被创建并按照顺序执行。
