Semi-Federated Learning for Collaborative Intelligence in Massive IoT Networks
Wanli Ni, Jingheng Zheng, Hui Tian
Implementing existing federated learning in massive Internet of Things (IoT) networks faces critical challenges such as imbalanced and statistically heterogeneous data and device diversity. To this end, we propose a semi-federated learning (SemiFL) framework to provide a potential solution for the realization of intelligent IoT. By seamlessly integrating the centralized and federated paradigms, our SemiFL framework shows high scalability in terms of the number of IoT devices even in the presence of computing-limited sensors. Furthermore, compared to traditional learning approaches, the proposed SemiFL can make better use of distributed data and computing resources, due to the collaborative model training between the edge server and local devices. Simulation results show the effectiveness of our SemiFL framework for massive IoT networks. The code can be found at https://github.com/niwanli/SemiFL_IoT.
