• Abstract: Federated learning has become an emerging technology for data analysis for IoT applications. This paper implements centralized and decentralized federated learning frameworks for crop yield prediction based on Long Short-Term Memory Network. For centralized federated learning, multiple clients and one server is considered, where the clients exchange their model updates with the server that works as the aggregator to build the global model. For the decentralized framework, a collaborative network is formed among the devices either using ring topology or using mesh topology. In this network, each device receives model updates from the neighbour devices, and performs aggregation to build the upgraded model. The performance of the centralized and decentralized federated learning frameworks are evaluated in terms of prediction accuracy, precision, recall, F1-Score, and training time. The experimental results present that $\geq$97% and $>$97.5% prediction accuracy are achieved using the centralized and decentralized federated learning-based frameworks respectively. The results also show that the using centralized federated learning the response time can be reduced by $\sim$75% than the cloud-only framework. Finally, the future research directions of the use of federated learning in crop yield prediction are explored in this paper.

  A decentralized federated learning (DFL) model with the gradient descent (SGD) algorithm has been introduced. Three scheduling policies for DFL have been proposed for communications between the clients and the parallel servers. Results show that the proposed scheduling polices have an impact both on the speed of convergence and in the final global model.

  Federated learning describes the distributed training of models across multiple clients while keeping the data private on-device. In this work, we view the server-orchestrated federated learning process as a hierarchical latent variable model where the server provides the parameters of a prior distribution over the client-specific model parameters. We show that with simple Gaussian priors and a hard version of the well known Expectation-Maximization (EM) algorithm, learning in such a model corresponds to FedAvg, the most popular algorithm for the federated learning setting.
