Federated Region-Learning: An Edge Computing Based Framework for Urban Environment Sensing

Abstract

Sparse sensory data caused by insufficient monitoring sites and their incomplete records becomes the main challenge of fine-grained environment sensing. In this paper, we develop a novel inference framework, named Federated Region- Learning (FRL), for urban environment sensing. The proposed framework inherits the basic idea of federated learning, and also considers the regional characteristics during the distribution of training samples so as to improve the inference accuracy. Moreover, we exploit an edge computing architecture to implement the FRL for improving the computational efficiency. We also apply FRL to PM2.5 monitoring in Beijing. The evaluation shows that our FRL improves computational efficiency nearly 3 times than centralized training mode and increases accuracy by more than 5% compared with normal distributed training.

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.
