๐ง Troubleshooting
"Missing app file" error:
- Ensure
app.py
is in the root directory - Check that SDK is set to
streamlit
(not docker)
Build fails:
- Check
requirements.txt
has minimal dependencies - Ensure no heavy packages (tensorflow, etc.) in requirements.txt
App doesn't load:
- Check logs in HF Spaces
- Verify app.py has no syntax errors

# FinFedRAG Deployment Guide
## Overview
This project implements a **complete, self-contained federated learning system** that runs entirely on Hugging Face Spaces. No local setup, no external servers, no Kubernetes configuration required!
## ๐ **Self-Contained System Features**
The HF Spaces deployment includes:
### **Complete Federated Learning System:**
- โ
**Simulated Federated Server**: Coordinates training across multiple banks
- โ
**Client Simulator**: Real-time client participation in federated rounds
- โ
**Model Aggregation**: FedAvg algorithm for combining model updates
- โ
**Training Coordination**: Manages federated learning rounds
- โ
**Privacy Protection**: Demonstrates zero data sharing
- โ
**Real-time Monitoring**: Live training progress and metrics
- โ
**Credit Scoring**: Predictions from the federated model
### **Interactive Features:**
- ๐ฎ **Client Controls**: Start/stop client participation
- ๐ฏ **Training Control**: Manual training round simulation
- ๐ **Live Visualizations**: Real-time training progress charts
- ๐ **Metrics Dashboard**: Accuracy, client count, round progress
- ๐ **Debug Information**: System status and logs
- ๐ **Educational Content**: Learn about federated learning
## ๐ฏ **How It Works**
### **1. Self-Contained Architecture:**
โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ โ Hugging Face Spaces โ โ โ โ โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ โ โ โ Web Interface โ โ Federated โ โ โ โ (Streamlit) โโโโโบโ System โ โ โ โ โ โ (Simulated) โ โ โ โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ โ โ โ โ โ โ โผ โผ โ โ โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ โ โ โ Client โ โ Model โ โ โ โ Simulator โ โ Aggregation โ โ โ โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ โ โ โ โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ
### **2. Federated Learning Process:**
1. **Client Registration**: Banks register with the federated server
2. **Local Training**: Each bank trains on their private data (simulated)
3. **Model Updates**: Only model weights are shared (not raw data)
4. **Aggregation**: Server combines updates using FedAvg algorithm
5. **Global Model**: Updated model distributed to all participants
6. **Predictions**: Users get credit scores from the collaborative model
### **3. Privacy Protection:**
- ๐ **Data Never Leaves**: Each bank's data stays completely local
- ๐ **Model Updates Only**: Only gradients/weights are shared
- ๐ **No Central Database**: No single point of data collection
- ๐ **Collaborative Learning**: Multiple banks improve the model together
## ๐ฎ **User Experience**
### **What Users Can Do:**
1. **Enter customer features** and get credit score predictions
2. **Start client simulators** to participate in federated learning
3. **Control training rounds** and watch the model improve
4. **View real-time metrics** and training progress
5. **Learn about federated learning** through interactive demos
### **Interactive Controls:**
- **Start/Stop Clients**: Control client participation
- **Training Rounds**: Manually trigger training rounds
- **Real-time Metrics**: Watch accuracy improve over time
- **Live Visualizations**: See training progress charts
- **Debug Information**: Monitor system status and logs
