FedLSG: LLM-Enhanced Semantic Calibration for Federated Graph Backdoor Defense

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2607.19674v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Federated Graph Neural Networks (FedGNNs) are highly vulnerable to backdoor poisoning, yet existing defenses typically rely on rule-based approaches that lack semantic understanding, making them vulnerable to stealthy triggers and harmful to benign structures. To solve this, we present FedLSG, the first framework that integrates large language models (LLMs) into federated graph backdoor defense. FedLSG introduces a graph and behavior to text grounding scheme that transforms local graph structures and client update behaviors into semantically rich natural language representations. The framework further adopts a lightweight student-teacher architecture. On the server side, a full scale LLM serves as a teacher, providing global contextual guid
