Optimal federated learning for functional mean estimation under heterogeneous privacy constraints
异质隐私约束下函数均值估计的最优联邦学习
Abstract Federated learning (FL) is a distributed machine learning technique designed to preserve data privacy and security, and it has gained significant importance due to its broad range of applications. This paper addresses the problem of optimal functional mean estimation from discretely sampled data in a federated setting. We consider a heterogeneous framework where the number of individuals, measurements per individual, and privacy parameters vary across one or more…
