SN Computer Science, 2026 - A Review on Federated Learning with Dual Knowledge Transfer
Hemapriya N, Gukan T K
2026 2nd International Conference on Intelligent Systems for Communication Iot and Security Iciscois 2026, 2026
With smartphones and edge devices being commonplace, expansive personal photo data has become incredibly common. As we embark on applications that utilize personal photo data to train effective classification models, including smart photo organization, the risks of privacy and the complexities of deploying centralized training weigh heavily on us. With the capabilities of Federated Learning (FL), users can collaboratively train models with other users without the sharing of raw personal data. However, FL is challenged by non-IID (non-independently and identically distributed) data, as dataset uniqueness stemmed from clients' unique photo collections is problematic because it yields non-IID client datasets that are often unbalanced too. FL methods, such as FedAvg, traditionally develop an adaptable global model while providing poorly personalized local models to users; newer approaches, like FedRep, improve personalization, but can instead worsen the performance of the global model. This paper presents an innovative dual knowledge transfer framework that mitigates the impact on i) local model personalization, and ii) global model generalization. The framework combines synthetic feature generation and bidirectional knowledge distillation to ensure users receive a personalized model while the users collaboratively improve the performance of the global model, all without compromising an individual's privacy. - Privacy Preserving Federated Reinforcement Imitation Learning Framework With Robust Aggregation for Cloud-Based Domestic Robots

Concurrency and Computation Practice and Experience, 2025
The evolution of cloud‐based web services for the control and tracking of robotic devices has significantly transformed the field of robotics. Domestic robotic devices performing household activities are becoming increasingly popular, as they collect large volumes of data, transmit it to the cloud, and leverage web services for collaborative learning. These devices interconnect and learn from their peers over the cloud. However, this distributed and interconnected learning environment introduces a serious vulnerability to model poisoning attacks, where malicious participants can deliberately corrupt the learning process. These attacks are a direct result of Byzantine behavior, where certain participants act arbitrarily or adversarially, undermining the integrity of the global model. These attacks pose a critical threat to the reliability, safety, and privacy of robotic systems operating in real‐world environments. To accelerate learning, peers connected through cloud‐based services contribute data and updates, but this collaboration inevitably leads to the exposure of sensitive information, further escalating privacy concerns. To tackle these pressing issues, we propose a novel framework called Federated Reinforcement Imitation Learning (FRIL). The framework involves the design of the FRIL architecture, an in‐depth analysis of threats in a distributed setting, and the development of a robust algorithm specifically designed to defend against model poisoning attacks. Experimental results demonstrate a high learning accuracy of 88 percent using the Edge IIoT dataset. The collaborative, decentralized, and privacy‐preserving nature of the proposed framework, combined with imitation learning, makes it highly resilient against adversarial interference, ensuring the stability and integrity of the Federated Learning process in domestic robotic environments. This work directly targets the growing threat of model poisoning attacks and provides a concrete solution to secure collaborative learning in intelligent robotic systems. - FEDTWIN–trustworthy digital twin as a service for visually impaired

Automatika, 2025
The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) revolutionize industries such as manufacturing, logistics, energy, and healthcare by merging smart sensors and devices with sophisticated network connectivity and advanced data analysis. Digital Twin As a Service (DTaaS) for Internet of Healthcare Things (IoHT) in the healthcare industry opens exciting opportunities to create virtual replicas of real healthcare systems and assets. Digital twins relying on cloud platforms, such as Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud, provide several vital capabilities, including data informed decision making, personalized patient simulation, up to 30% decrease in equipment downtime with predictive maintenance, and operational efficiency of more than 25% through real-time remote monitoring. This paper proposes an all encompassing methodology towards the development and deployment of compositional digital twins utilizing services applied towards assisting the visually challenged with a smart stick. Federated learning has been proposed as one potential approach that could help in preserving the privacy of clients, particularly concerning the protection of patient's confidential information. One of the possible healthcare scenario that demonstrates how digital twin technology guiding visually impaired individuals, with a possible enhancement in the success rate of mobility by 40%. - Hashed Nebula: Self-attention with Feature Engineering for Dynamic Malware Detection

Identification of malware is vital for safeguarding safety critical systems from cyber threats. Currently learning based approaches aid the malware detection pipeline. Current techniques to detect malware on Windows systems tend to overlook various types of behaviors, primarily concentrating on Application Programming Interface (API) calls without considering heterogeneous information, and also it requires large amounts of annotated data. To solve these problems, in this work, Hashed Nebula is proposed, a self-attention transformer-based neural network is considered along with a hashing method to encode API call names, categories, and arguments separately to improve features selection. Proposed Hashed-Nebula is evaluated on benchmark malware datasets such as Speakeasy and Malicious Code Dataset (MCD). Hashed-Nebula performs better than the existing Nebula model, with 4% increase in detection accuracy and 2% improvement in F1 score on Speakeasy dataset. In addition, it shows an 18% increase in detection accuracy and a 4% improvement in F1 score in the MCD dataset. Hashed-Nebula could serve as a reliable and efficient solution for malware detection. - Predicting Crop Yield Based on Bagging Ensemble Model in Machine Learning

2025 4th International Conference on Smart Technologies and Systems for Next Generation Computing Icstsn 2025, 2025
This paper is concerned with various machine Learning (ML) techniques to estimate the crop yield based on various factors, followed by an averaging technique. Multiple models are utilised by this ensemble machine learning technique called Bagging, taking weak learners as the base model to make the prediction. The pertinent ML algorithms that support crop yield prediction are Support Vector machines (SVM), Random trees (RT), Linear Regression (LR), K Nearest Neighbour (KNN), Random Forest (RF), Multiple Regression (MR), Support Vector Regression (SVR), Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) and Deep Neural Networks (DNN). Of these, in this paper, Classification and Regression Tree (CART), Ridge Regression (RR), eXtreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost), and Artificial Neural Network (ANN) were implemented along with Bagging as the ensemble technique. The output of the entity models was thus averaged to give a final prediction. - Trustworthy Glucose Prediction Using Federated Learning: Privacy Preserving as a Service

Diabetes is one of the most difficult chronic diseases to manage, especially among working individuals and elderly people with limited mobility. Without adequate time to monitor the blood sugar levels, many individuals find it particularly difficult to keep tabs on their glucose. This paper proposes a solution to this issue leveraging Deep Learning (DL) methods, particularly Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks, which are a type of Recurrent Neural Networks (RNN) ideally designed for time series forecasting. To automate the process of diabetes management, the LSTM model is designed to predict glucose levels by being trained on active data collected from the users in real time. For the model to learn without the sensitive data being exposed, data privacy and protection mechanisms are established using Federated Learning (FL). This method allows sensitive information to remain securely stored within devices while ensuring the advantages of joint model training and reduced vulnerability risks from storing shared data. The healthcare centers provide the combination of LSTM and FL and host it in a cloud environment as a service or as web services enabling patients to receive blood glucose level predictions in real time without visiting the clinic. The proposed system shows an accuracy of LSTM with FL which results to 95% and only LSTM as such receives 98% with loss being minutely less of 1% compared to each other. The total error reduced using RMSE and MAE are 0.17 and 0.02 for plain LSTM and 0.29 and 0.09 for LSTM with FL. - DeepFM model based Trustworthy Web Service Recommendation System

Modern e-commerce platforms increasingly rely on microservices architecture for its superior scalability and flexibility. However, this distributed approach introduces significant security vulnerabilities, particularly concerning sensitive data protection. Our research presents an innovative security enhancement method that combines federated learning with LSTM models, validated using the Sock Shop dataset. The federated learning paradigm facilitates decentralized model training while maintaining data privacy across distributed microservices. Our Dual Model Federated Learning (DMFL) framework employs Multi-task Federated Learning to develop multi classification anomaly detection models for individual microservices. The External Attention Mechanism with Multi-channel Residual Structure effectively identifies complex anomaly patterns and the Local-Global Parallel Knowledge Transfer framework enables efficient knowledge exchange between local and global features. Experimental evaluation demonstrates that our approach significantly improves security measures without compromising data privacy, outperforming traditional centralized methods. The DMFL method achieves impressive performance metrics of 96.2% accuracy, 93.5% precision, and 91.7% recall. - Attention-Enhanced Deep Learning Models for EEG-Based Driver Drowsiness Detection

Driver fatigue and drowsiness have become increasingly significant factors in traffic accidents. Road traffic accidents are responsible for hundreds of thousands of deaths in the world every year. Many of today's detection methods for drowsiness use environmental condition or observable differences in driver behavior, which can often yield unreliable information. To be effective, a solution must ensure minimal environmental restrictions. In this work, EEG signals provide indicators to fatigue and attention. The SEED VIG dataset was utilized to preprocess and synchronize EEG signals for possible classification of drivers into alert and drowsy depictions. To classify the EEG signals, deep learning models: (a) Entropy Optimization Network (EON), (b) HealNet EEG, (c) Self-Attention based architectures, and (d) Multi-Scale CNNs, were configured to be fully functional. Each of these models produced results that demonstrated the inability of traditional algorithms to yield more reliable estimates when detecting drowsiness and fatigue. This research offers real time solutions utilizing AI EEG analysis for intelligent transportation systems, justified and reliable alternatives to reduce accidents and loss of life on roadways. - LV-YOLO: logistic vehicle speed detection and counting using deep learning based YOLO network
