- FL Mode: Federated Learning (data stays local)
- SL Mode: Split Learning (collaborative training)
- SS Mode: Secret Sharing (maximum privacy with MPC)
# Run FL example (easiest to start)
python examples/FL/linear_regression.py
# Run other examples
python examples/FL/kmeans.py
python examples/SL/random_forest_classifier.py
# For maximum privacy (SS mode - requires multi-party)
# Terminal 1: python examples/SS/pca.py --party bob
# Terminal 2: python examples/SS/pca.py --party aliceThe easiest way to get started is running the complete examples:
# FL Mode - Best for learning (works in examples)
python examples/FL/linear_regression.py # Linear regression
python examples/FL/kmeans.py # Clustering
python examples/FL/random_forest_classifier.py # Ensemble
# SL Mode - Split learning examples
python examples/SL/mlp_classifier.py
python examples/SL/linear_regression.py
# SS Mode - Requires multi-party setup (highest security)
# Terminal 1 (Bob):
python examples/SS/pca.py --party bob
# Terminal 2 (Alice):
python examples/SS/pca.py --party aliceSecretFlow 1.14+ uses PRODUCTION mode which requires:
- Proper cluster configuration
- Network initialization
- Multi-party coordination
The example scripts handle all this complexity for you. For custom code, use the examples as templates.

# Run complete FL example
python examples/FL/linear_regression.pyThe example demonstrates:
- Local data computation on each party's PYU device
- Secure model aggregation
- Privacy-preserving predictions
- JAX acceleration for local training
FL Mode works with single-process simulation (best for learning and testing):
# Run existing FL examples - no complex setup needed!
# These work out of the box:
# python examples/FL/linear_regression.py
# python examples/FL/kmeans.py
# python examples/FL/random_forest_classifier.py
# For custom FL code, see examples/FL/ directory
# FL mode simulates federation in a single processFor production FL deployments, use the production mode setup shown above with PYU devices.
SS Mode requires multi-party setup with SecretFlow's MPC engine:
# Run existing SS examples (multi-process required):
# Terminal 1 - Bob
python examples/SS/adaboost_classifier.py --party bob
# Terminal 2 - Alice
python examples/SS/adaboost_classifier.py --party alice
# Each party's data stays completely private with full MPC protectionSee examples/SS/ directory for 191 complete SS mode examples.

Secret-Learn algorithms use JAX for acceleration in their local computations:
- FL Mode: Each party's local training is JAX-accelerated
- SL Mode: Split model computations use JAX when beneficial
- SS Mode: Pre/post-processing with JAX before MPC encryption
JAX automatically selects the best available hardware:
- CPU: Default, works everywhere
- GPU: Automatic detection if CUDA available
- TPU: Automatic detection on Google Cloud
All examples benefit from JAX acceleration automatically with no code changes required.
