Abstract Federated learning enables data owners in the Internet of Things (IoT) to collaborate in training models without sharing private data, creating new business opportunities for building a data market. However, in practical operation, there are still some problems with federated learning applications. Blockchain has the characteristics of decentralization, distribution, and security. The blockchain-enabled federated learning further improve the security and performance of model training, while also expanding the application scope of federated learning. Blockchain has natural financial attributes that help establish a federated learning data market. However, the data of federated learning tasks may be… More >

Abstract Federated Learning (FL) enables collaborative and privacy-preserving training of machine learning models within the Internet of Vehicles (IoV) realm. While FL effectively tackles privacy concerns, it also imposes significant resource requirements. In traditional FL, trained models are transmitted to a central server for global aggregation, typically in the cloud. This approach often leads to network congestion and bandwidth limitations when numerous devices communicate with the same server. The need for Flexible Global Aggregation and Dynamic Client Selection in FL for the IoV arises from the inherent characteristics of IoV environments. These include diverse and distributed… More >

Abstract Federated learning is a distributed machine learning method that can solve the increasingly serious problem of data islands and user data privacy, as it allows training data to be kept locally and not shared with other users. It trains a global model by aggregating locally-computed models of clients rather than their raw data. However, the divergence of local models caused by data heterogeneity of different clients may lead to slow convergence of the global model. For this problem, we focus on the client selection with federated learning, which can affect the convergence performance of the… More > Graphic Abstract
