Next - Location Prediction Using Federated Learning on a Blockchain
Abstract
Mobile devices are a rich source of sensitive location data. In this paper, we propose a method for harnessing this data to provide better location predictions without sacrificing the privacy of the users generating this data. To this end, we propose utilizing Federated Learning to train locally on a user's mobile device, while simultaneously identifying and combatting the possibility of bad actors or adversaries that may deliberately report problematic data to hurt the training process. Furthermore, we propose using a blockchain instead of a centralized server for the training process, to ensure that the process is secure.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
