  • Publication number: 20230106706
    Abstract: Provided are techniques for a Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) based identification of an edge server. At a first edge server, a global discriminator that has been trained with common data is received. It is determined that area data is imbalanced using the global discriminator. A local discriminator is trained with the area data to generate a first result. An exchanged local discriminator from a second edge server is trained with the area data to generate a second result. The first result and the second result indicate that the first edge server and the second edge server are proximate. The first edge server and the second edge server are added to an edge server group list. At least one of an application model and a configuration of an application is updated from one of the first edge server and the second edge server, and the application is executed.

  • Publication number: 20230050708
    Abstract: A computer system trains a federated learning model. A federated learning model is distributed to a plurality of computing nodes, each having a set of local training data comprising labeled data samples. Statistical data is received from each computing node that indicates the node's count of data samples for each label, and is analyzed to identify one or more computing nodes having local training data in which a label category is underrepresented beyond a threshold value with respect to data samples. Additional data samples labeled with the underrepresented labels are provided, and the computing nodes perform training. Results of training are received and are processed to generate a trained global model. Embodiments of the present invention further include a method and program product for training a federated learning model in substantially the same manner described above.

  • Patent number: 11501337
    Abstract: A processor may generate, based on a predicted route of a user, a timeslot for presenting information to the user. The predicted route may be associated with a route segment, and the timeslot may be associated with the route segment. The processor may match one or more proposals to the timeslot associated with the route segment. The one or more proposals may be matched, at least in part, based on proposal criteria set by a proposal criteria user associated with the proposal. The processor may predict an acceptance potentiality of the user. The processor may select a subset of the one or more proposals. The processor may provide the selected subset of the one or more proposals. The selected subset may be provided, at least in part, based on the acceptance potentiality.

  • Publication number: 20220343219
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method, a computer program product, and a computer system for parallel cross validation in collaborative machine learning. A server groups local models into groups. In each group, each local device uses its local data to validate accuracies of the local models and sends a validation result to a group leader or the server. The group leader or the server selects groups whose variances of the accuracies are not below a predetermined variance threshold. In each selected group, the group leader or the server compares an accuracy of each local model with an average value of the accuracies and randomly selects one or more local models whose accuracies do not exceed a predetermined accuracy threshold. The server obtains weight parameters of selected local models and updates the global model based on the weight parameters.

  • Patent number: 10745010
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus, including computer program products, implementing and using techniques for detecting anomalous vehicle behavior. It is determined whether a plurality of received car probes include one or more indicators of unusual behavior. An object agent corresponding to a vehicle having a car probe that includes an indicator of unusual behavior is selected. A search is performed to select one or more vehicles surrounding the vehicle having a car probe that includes an indicator of unusual behavior. An information entropy is determined from received car probes, for the vehicle having a car probe that includes an indicator of unusual behavior and for each of the selected surrounding vehicles. An anomalous point value is calculated for each vehicle, based on the determined information entropies. In response to determining that the anomalous point value for a car exceeds a pre-determined threshold, the vehicle is flagged as a vehicle exhibiting anomalous behavior.
