Recent studies have shown that the training samples can be recovered from gradients, which are called Gradient Inversion (GradInv) attacks. However, there remains a lack of extensive surveys covering recent advances and thorough analysis of this issue. In this paper, we present a comprehensive survey on GradInv, aiming to summarize the cutting-edge research and broaden the horizons for different domains. Firstly, we propose a taxonomy of GradInv attacks by characterizing existing attacks into two paradigms: iteration- and recursion-based attacks. In particular, we dig out some critical ingredients from the iteration-based attacks, including data initialization, model training and gradient matching. Second, we summarize emerging defense strategies against GradInv attacks. We find these approaches focus on three perspectives covering data obscuration, model improvement and gradient protection. Finally, we discuss some promising directions and open problems for further research.

    cs.CV 2025-09 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Gradient inversion recovers low-resolution frames from single-sample video gradients in federated learning, and super-resolution modestly improves fidelity against originals, while feature extractors resist the attack...

    cs.LG 2025-06 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    PC-MoE shards the expert layers of an MoE LLM across parties and routes only sparse top-k activations between them, achieving near-centralized accuracy with about 70% memory savings and resistance to one partial-gradi...

    A formal RAG threat model is defined with four adversary classes and game-based notions of membership inference, leakage, and poisoning, but the definitions largely restate known concepts and the main DP-based protect...
