Patent number: 11715044Abstract: Methods and systems for horizontal federated learning are described. A plurality of sets of local model parameters is obtained. Each set of local model parameters was learned at a respective client. For each given set of local model parameters, collaboration coefficients are computed, representing a similarity between the given set of local model parameters and each other set of local model parameters. Updating of the sets of local model parameters is performed, to obtain sets of updated local model parameters. Each given set of local model parameters is updated using a weighted aggregation of the other sets of local model parameters, where the weighted aggregation is computed using the collaboration coefficients. The sets of updated local model parameters are provided to each respective client.Type: GrantFiled: June 2, 2020Date of Patent: August 1, 2023Assignee: HUAWEI CLOUD COMPUTING TECHNOLOGIES CO., LTD.Inventors: Lingyang Chu, Yutao Huang, Yong Zhang, Lanjun Wang

Patent number: 11715046Abstract: This document describes techniques and apparatuses for enhancing data-analytic visualizations of a data analytics system. A computing device captures input data and output data associated with a data-analytic visualization generated by an advanced user using the data analytics system. The input data and output data are mapped together for defining the data-analytic visualization generated. A machine learning model is trained relative to the mapped input data and output data for generating the data-analytic visualization. During a normal usage of the data analytics system by a user, the trained model generates data-analytic visualizations to suggest to the user responsive to input data from the user. An optional threshold is set and applied relative to the data-analytic visualizations generated. If a data-analytic visualization meets the threshold, the data analytics system reports the data-analytic visualization.Type: GrantFiled: July 14, 2020Date of Patent: August 1, 2023Assignee: MICRO FOCUS LLCInventor: Tamir Mitelman
