• Abstract: Federated learning is a distributed machine learning framework to collaboratively train a global model without uploading privacy-sensitive data onto a centralized server. Usually, this framework is applied to edge devices such as smartphones, wearable devices, and Internet of Things (IoT) devices which closely collect information from users. However, these devices are mostly battery-powered. The update procedure of federated learning will constantly consume the battery power and the transmission bandwidth. In this work, we propose an update control for federated learning, FedSAUC, by considering the similarity of users' behaviors (models). At the server side, we exploit clustering algorithms to group devices with similar models. Then we select some representatives for each cluster to update information to train the model. We also implemented a testbed prototyping on edge devices for validating the performance. The experimental results show that this update control will not affect the training accuracy in the long run.

  Federated Learning (FL) is attracting more and more attention to collaboratively train a machine learning model without transferring raw data. FL generally exploits a parameter server and a large number of edge devices during the whole process of the model training. We propose TEASQ-Fed to exploit edge devices to asynchronously participate in the training process by actively applying for tasks.

  Federated learning(FL) as a distributed machine learning approach performs training of a machine learning model on the device that gathered the data itself. In this paper, we leverage the benefits of FL and implemented Fedavg algorithm on a recent dataset that represent the modern IoT/ IIoT device networks. We also evaluated some shortcomings of Fedavg such as unfairness that happens during the training when struggling devices do not participate for every stage of training.

  Federated learning (FL) and Split Learning (SL) are two frameworks that enable collaborative learning while keeping the data private (on device) In FL, each data holder trains a model locally and releases it to a central server for aggregation. In SL, the clients must release individual cut-layer activations (smashed data) to the server and wait for its response (during both inference and back propagation). In this work, we present a novel approach for privacy-preserving machine learning, where the clients collaborate via online knowledge distillation using a contrastive loss.

• Comparative assessment of federated and centralized machine learning [0.0]
  Federated Learning (FL) is a privacy preserving machine learning scheme, where training happens with data federated across devices. In this paper, we discuss the various factors that affect the federated learning training, because of the non-IID distributed nature of the data. We show that federated learning does have an advantage in cost when the model sizes to be trained are not reasonably large.

  We study federated edge learning, where a global model is trained collaboratively using privacy-sensitive data at the edge of a wireless network. A parameter server (PS) keeps track of the global model and shares it with the wireless edge devices for training using their private local data. We consider device selection based on downlink channels over which the PS shares the global model with the devices.

  A neural-network based on-device learning approach is recently proposed, so that edge devices train incoming data at runtime to update their model. In this paper, we focus on OS-ELM to sequentially train a model based on recent samples and combine it with autoencoder for anomaly detection. We extend it for an on-device federated learning so that edge devices can exchange their trained results and update their model by using those collected from the other edge devices.
