The advent of the big data era has brought unprecedented data demands. The integration of computing resources with network resources in the computing force network enables the possibility of distributed collaborative training. However, unencrypted collaborative training is vulnerable to threats such as gradient inversion attacks and model theft. To address this issue, the data in collaborative training are usually protected by cryptographic methods. However, the semantic meaninglessness of encrypted data makes it difficult to prevent potential data poisoning attacks and free-riding attacks. In this paper, we propose a fairness guarantee approach for privacy-preserving collaborative training, employing blockchain technology to enable participants to share data and exclude potential violators from normal users. We utilize a cryptography-based secure aggregation method to prevent data leakage during blockchain transactions, and employ a contribution evaluation method for encrypted data to prevent data poisoning and free-riding attacks. Additionally, utilizing Shamir’s secret sharing for secret key negotiation within the group, the negotiated key is directly introduced as noise into the model, ensuring the encryption process is computationally lightweight. Decryption is efficiently achieved through the aggregation of encrypted models within the group, without incurring additional computational costs, thereby enhancing the computational efficiency of the encryption and decryption processes. Finally, the experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness and efficiency of our proposed approach.
