  text: 'We present Cross-Client Label Propagation(XCLP), a new method for transductive
    federated learning. XCLP estimates a data graph jointly from the data of multiple
    clients and computes labels for the unlabeled data by propagating label information
    across the graph. To avoid clients having to share their data with anyone, XCLP
    employs two cryptographically secure protocols: secure Hamming distance computation
    and secure summation. We demonstrate two distinct applications of XCLP within
    federated learning. In the first, we use it in a one-shot way to predict labels
    for unseen test points. In the second, we use it to repeatedly pseudo-label unlabeled
    training data in a federated semi-supervised setting. Experiments on both real
    federated and standard benchmark datasets show that in both applications XCLP
    achieves higher classification accuracy than alternative approaches.'
