Application: Federated learning participant selection method and apparatus, and device and storage medium (Patent ID: US20230394365A1)

The patent filed by ZTE Corp. discloses a method and apparatus for selecting participants in federated learning. The method involves acquiring a group of participants, determining data quality, service, and stability factors for each participant, and selecting a participant based on these factors. The selection process is tailored based on the type of federated learning being conducted, such as Key Performance Indicator (KPI) degradation detection, cell weight optimization, or optical module fault prediction. The selection criteria include parameters like QoS alarm, location data, and in-service duration, with the ultimate goal of optimizing participant selection for efficient federated learning.

The apparatus described in the patent includes a processor and memory storing a program to execute the participant selection method. The method involves acquiring participants, evaluating data quality, service, and stability factors for each participant, and selecting the most suitable participant based on these factors. The selection process is customized based on the type of federated learning being conducted, such as KPI degradation detection, cell weight optimization, or optical module fault prediction. Parameters like QoS alarm, location data, and in-service duration are considered in the selection process to ensure optimal participant selection for effective federated learning.
