  • Publication number: 20240346379
    Abstract: A computing system determines a median of a first number of mean values received from a first number of clusters, where each cluster of the first number of clients includes a first plurality of clients. Also, a threshold is determined based on the median, where the threshold applies to model updates. The median and the threshold are broadcast to all clients. Next, one or more clients that fail to provide a proof attesting that their model update is within the threshold of the median are dropped. Then, a second plurality of clients, not including the one or more dropped clients, participate in a final round of secure aggregation. Next, a final aggregate result is obtained, where the final aggregate result is based on the final round of secure aggregation. Then, one or more actions are performed based on the final aggregate result.

  • Publication number: 20240223919
    Abstract: Systems and methods of the present disclosure include a digital image sensor pixel configured to perform digital correlated double-sampling (D-CDS) operations to compensate for fixed pattern noise (FPN) induced by comparator propagation delay variation across a digital pixel array. The pixel and D-CDS operations also support quantization of incident light using two pixel memory banks. The pixel includes data retention logic coupled to selectively lock and unlock the output of a comparator. The output of the comparator is combined with memory bank write enable signals to convert photodiode charge into digital pixel values stored in the two memory banks. The digital pixel values stored in the memory banks may be added or subtracted to generate an FPN compensated digital pixel value.
