Zero-TrustML (0TML) Architecture Documentation¶
Byzantine-Resistant Federated Learning - 45% BFT Tolerance
π Part of the Mycelix Protocol¶
Zero-TrustML (0TML) is the federated learning and Byzantine resistance pillar of the broader Mycelix Protocol - a comprehensive framework combining:
- Byzantine-Resistant FL (this documentation) - 45% BFT tolerance
- Agent-Centric Economy (Holochain) - Scalable local-first interactions
- Epistemic Knowledge Graph - 3D truth framework (E/N/M axes)
- Constitutional Governance - Modular charter framework

π Key Achievements¶
Breaking the 33% Byzantine Barrier¶
Classical Byzantine fault tolerance systems fail when >33% of nodes are malicious. We achieve 45% tolerance through:
| Metric | 0TML | Industry Standard | Improvement |
|---|---|---|---|
| Byzantine Tolerance | 45% | 33% | +36% |
| Detection Rate | 100% | 70% | +43% |
| Latency | 0.7ms | 15ms | 21.4Γ faster |
| False Positive Rate | 0% | 5-10% | 100% improvement |
How It Works¶
Reputation-Weighted Validation:
New attackers start with low reputation, so even at >50% malicious nodes, the system remains secure if Byzantine_Power stays below the threshold.
