  • Publication number: 20240080180
    Abstract: The federated learning system includes a moderator and client devices. Each client device performs a method for verifying model update as follows: receiving a hash function and a general model; training a client model according to the general model and raw data; calculating a difference as an update parameter between the general model and the client model, sending the update parameter to the moderator; inputting the update parameter to the hash function to generate a hash value; sending the hash value to other client devices, and receiving other hash values; summing all the hash values to generate a trust value; receiving an aggregation parameter calculated according to the update parameters; inputting the aggregation parameter to the hash function to generate a to-be-verified value; and updating the client model according to the aggregation parameter when the to-be-verified value equals the trust value.

  • Patent number: 11916058
    Abstract: An integrated circuit is provided and includes a multi-bit cell having multiple bit cells disposed in multiple cell rows. The bit cells include M bit cells, M being positive integers. A first bit cell of the bit cells and a M-th bit cell of the bit cells are arranged diagonally in different cell rows in the multi-bit cell. The multi-bit cell includes first to fourth cell boundaries. The first and second boundaries extend in a first direction and the third and fourth boundaries extend in a second direction different from the first direction. The first bit cell and a second bit cell of the bit cells abut the third cell boundary, and the first bit cell and a (M/2+1)-th bit cell of the bit cells abut the first cell boundary.

  • Publication number: 20090284851
    Abstract: A device for locking lens and a method for the same are provided. The device is used in a voice-coil motor of a photographing module of a cell phone. The voice-coil motor has a lens-stand for a lens being turned to a locking depth inside. The device includes a circumgyration-stop instrument having a first sustaining surface, and a focusing ring having a turning end. A turn-locking length of the turning end is equal to the locking depth inside. The device includes a circumgyration-stop preventing a pressure being persisted to apply on the lens as the focusing ring finishes the turn of the lens. The first turn-stop surface props the first sustaining surface as the focusing ring is turned to an extremity of the turn-locking length. The focusing ring accordingly escapes the circumgyration-stop instrument for finishing the focusing of the lens in the lens-stand.
