Autonomous Federated Learning Architectures for Scalable IoT Networks: Enhancing Distributed Intelligence with Privacy Preservation
摘要
We consider autonomous federated learning schemes for scalable Internet of Things (IoT) networks that can enhance distributed intelligence while preserving privacy. First, we evaluate the performance of federated learning in comparison to centralized approaches, considering key Figures of Merit (FoMs), including model accuracy, energy consumption, latency, and vulnerability to adversarial attacks. Through simulations, we demonstrate that federated learning scales well with the number of devices, improving model accuracy while significantly reducing communication overhead and energy consumption across a variety of device types. Additionally, we show the resilience of federated learning against privacy leakage attacks and highlight the effectiveness of advanced secure techniques. These results position federated learning as an emerging paradigm to support intelligent, efficient, and secure IoT systems, providing a foundation for further exploration to meet the growing demands underpinning the IoT.
