I’m currently working on a Q1-level paper (under review) that proposes a novel framework integrating:

  • Att-TCGAN: Attention-based Temporal Convolutional GAN for privacy-preserving deep feature learning,
  • Ze-KPr: A zero-knowledge proof-based identity smart contract mechanism for edge authentication on blockchain, and
  • Fr-Agg: Federated Robust Aggregation for secure, scalable model convergence across heterogeneous nodes.
  • The model achieved 99.36% accuracy on the CIC-IoT 2023 dataset with significantly reduced latency and processing time, outperforming PoW, PoA, and traditional aggregation strategies in real-world IoT scenarios.

    Question:

    What fundamental bottlenecks or adversarial risks do you foresee in making such hybrid FL-blockchain architectures the standard protocol for real-time, privacy-sensitive IoT environments?

    Additionally, how can we further optimize or generalize these components (especially Ze-KPr or Fr-Agg) for large-scale industrial deployments without compromising auditability or model convergence?
