Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Federated Learning (FL) is a decentralized learning mechanism, which enables to train machine learning (ML) models using data of mobile devices while keeping all the data on the devices. In FL, a cloud server updates a model by aggregating multiple models updated by the mobile devices. Therefore, the overall training process can become inefficient when some devices are with poor computational resources or wireless channel conditions. In order to mitigate this problem, FL with Client Selection (FedCS) protocol, an extension of FL, has been proposed which solves a client selection problem with resource constraints. While FL and extensions of it have proposed as described above, the bandwidths and computation capability of each client are evaluated by only simulation. Thus, we implement the FL on real devices and evaluate it experimentally. We implement a server and Linux-based single board computers with wireless LAN connection. We performed non-selection FL protocol and FedCS protocol in the environment and solved a image classification problem. The experimental results show that the FL using real devices can learn the model as well as the simulation.
