The Implications of Decentralization in Blockchained Federated Learning: Evaluating the Impact of Model Staleness and Inconsistencies

no code implementations11 Oct 2023 Francesc Wilhelmi, Nima Afraz, Elia Guerra, Paolo Dini

Blockchain promises to enhance distributed machine learning (ML) approaches such as federated learning (FL) by providing further decentralization, security, immutability, and trust, which are key properties for enabling collaborative intelligence in next-generation applications.

The Cost of Training Machine Learning Models over Distributed Data Sources

1 code implementation15 Sep 2022 Elia Guerra, Francesc Wilhelmi, Marco Miozzo, Paolo Dini

Federated learning is one of the most appealing alternatives to the standard centralized learning paradigm, allowing a heterogeneous set of devices to train a machine learning model without sharing their raw data.

Balancing the Payment System

no code implementations6 Nov 2020 Tomaž Fleischman, Paolo Dini

We also briefly introduce a generalization of a payment system and of the method to balance it in the form of a specific application (Tetris Core Technologies), whose wider adoption could contribute to the financial stability of and better management of liquidity and risk for the whole economy.

Dynamic Control of Functional Splits for Energy Harvesting Virtual Small Cells: a Distributed Reinforcement Learning Approach

no code implementations13 Jun 2019 Dagnachew Azene T., Marco Miozzo, Paolo Dini

In this paper, we propose a network scenario where the baseband processes of the virtual small cells powered solely by energy harvesters and batteries can be opportunistically executed in a grid-connected edge computing server, co-located at the macro base station site.
