This book presents how federated learning helps to understand and learn from user activity in Internet of Things (IoT) applications while protecting user privacy. The authors first show how federated learning provides a unique way to build personalized models using data without intruding on users’ privacy. The authors then provide a comprehensive survey of state-of-the-art research on federated learning, giving the reader a general overview of the field. The book also investigates how a personalized federated learning framework is needed in cloud-edge architecture as well as in wireless-edge architecture for intelligent IoT applications. To cope with the heterogeneity issues in IoT environments, the book investigates emerging personalized federated learning methods that are able to mitigate the negative effects caused by heterogeneities in different aspects. The book provides case studies of IoT based human activity recognition to demonstrate the effectiveness of personalized federated learning for intelligent IoT applications, as well as multiple controller design and system analysis tools including model predictive control, linear matrix inequalities, optimal control, etc. This unique and complete co-design framework will benefit researchers, graduate students and engineers in the fields of control theory and engineering.

This book provides a comprehensive and self-contained introduction to federated learning, ranging from the basic knowledge and theories to various key applications. Privacy and incentive issues are the focus of this book. It is timely as federated learning is becoming popular after the release of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Since federated learning aims to enable a machine model to be collaboratively trained without each party exposing private data to others. This setting adheres to regulatory requirements of data privacy protection such as GDPR. This book contains three main parts. Firstly, it introduces different privacy-preserving methods for protecting a federated learning model against different types of attacks such as data leakage and/or data poisoning. Secondly, the book presents incentive mechanisms which aim to encourage individuals to participate in the federated learning ecosystems. Last but not least, this book also describes how federated learning can be applied in industry and business to address data silo and privacy-preserving problems. The book is intended for readers from both the academia and the industry, who would like to learn about federated learning, practice its implementation, and apply it in their own business. Readers are expected to have some basic understanding of linear algebra, calculus, and neural network. Additionally, domain knowledge in FinTech and marketing would be helpful.”

This book covers the research area from multiple viewpoints including bibliometric analysis, reviews, empirical analysis, platforms, and future applications. The centralized training of deep learning and machine learning models not only incurs a high communication cost of data transfer into the cloud systems but also raises the privacy protection concerns of data providers. This book aims at targeting researchers and practitioners to delve deep into core issues in federated learning research to transform next-generation artificial intelligence applications. Federated learning enables the distribution of the learning models across the devices and systems which perform initial training and report the updated model attributes to the centralized cloud servers for secure and privacy-preserving attribute aggregation and global model development. Federated learning benefits in terms of privacy, communication efficiency, data security, and contributors’ control of their critical data.
