  • Publication number: 20240119307
    Abstract: The embodiments are directed towards providing personalized federated learning (PFL) models via sharable federated basis models. A model architecture and learning algorithm for PFL models is disclosed. The embodiments learn a set of basis models, which can be combined layer by layer to form a personalized model for each client using specifically learned combination coefficients. The set of basis models are shared with each client of a set of the clients. Thus, the set of basis models is common to each client of the set of clients. However, each client may generate a unique PFL based on their specifically learned combination coefficients. The unique combination of coefficients for each client may be encoded in a separate personalized vector for each of the clients.

  • Patent number: 10693293
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus for protecting a direct-current (DC) electric power distribution system that includes one or more AC/DC converters and/or one more DC/DC converters, and one or more loads, connected by DC buses. An example method, which is carried out in response to the detection of a fault somewhere in the system, begins with limiting an output current of each of one or more of the converters so that each of the limited converters outputs a limited DC current at or about a corresponding predetermined current level. After the current limiting of the one or more converters has taken place, one or more protection devices in the system are activated, where the activating at least partly depends on the limited DC currents being at or about the predetermined fault current levels.
