Abstract

This project will do research on distributed and decentralized machine learning methods, for example Federated Learning (FL), gossip learning, transfer learning and reinforcement learning - specifically the aspects of such functions that apply to a distributed cloud/virtual 5G RAN environment. FL is a promising framework for distributed learning when data is private and sensitive. However, the state-of-the-art solutions in this framework are not optimal when data is heterogeneous and non-IID. FL, especially device-based FL is also resource intensive due to the very large amount of clients needed to investigate these methods.
