Research Type Experimental We conduct extensive experiments on five real-world datasets and show that Fed GC outperforms centralized GC and FGL methods, especially in large-scale datasets. Meanwhile, Fed GC can consistently protect membership privacy during the whole federated training process.

Pseudocode No The paper describes methods using mathematical formulations and prose, but no explicit pseudocode or algorithm blocks are provided.
Open Source Code No The paper does not contain an explicit statement regarding the availability of source code, nor does it provide a link to a code repository.
Open Datasets Yes Datasets. Follow (Jin et al. 2022b; Zheng et al. 2023), we evaluate Fed GC on five graph datasets on node classification task, including Cora, Citeseer, Ogbn-arxiv, Flickr, and Reddit.
Dataset Splits Yes We adopt the public splits provided in (Jin et al. 2022b).
Hardware Specification No The paper does not provide specific hardware details (e.g., GPU models, CPU types, or cloud instance specifications) used for running its experiments.
Software Dependencies No The paper does not provide specific ancillary software details, such as library or solver names with version numbers.
Experiment Setup Yes Following (Jin et al. 2022b), we report results under different condensation ratio r. Following (Yao et al. 2023), we test all FGL methods under the non-i.i.d. depicted by Dirichlet distribution (β=1). we set the client number n=10 for small datasets Cora and Citesser, and n=5 for large-scale datasets Ogbn-arxiv, Flickr, and Reddit. We run 5 times and report the average and variance of results. We utilize accuracy (Acc) to evaluate the condensation performance and AUC score to measure MIA performance.
