In Federated Learning, it is crucial to handle low-quality, corrupted, or malicious data. However, traditional data valuation methods are not suitable due to privacy concerns. To address this, we propose a simple yet effective approach that…
In the mobile Internet era, the recommender system has become an irreplaceable tool to help users discover useful items, and thus alleviating the information overload problem. Recent deep neural network (DNN)-based recommender system…
Conventionally, federated learning aims to optimize a single objective, typically the utility. However, for a federated learning system to be trustworthy, it needs to simultaneously satisfy multiple/many objectives, such as maximizing model…
The metaverse, emerging as a revolutionary platform for social and economic activities, provides various virtual services while posing security and privacy challenges. Wearable devices serve as bridges between the real world and the…
The remarkable success of machine learning, especially deep learning, has produced a variety of cloud-based services for mobile users. Such services require an end user to send data to the service provider, which presents a serious…
Federated learning has emerged as a powerful framework for analysing distributed data, yet two challenges remain pivotal: heterogeneity across sites and privacy of local data. In this paper, we address both challenges within a federated…
Balancing differential privacy (DP) with recommendation accuracy is a key challenge in privacy-preserving recommender systems, since DP-noise degrades accuracy. We address this trade-off at both the data and model levels. At the data level,…
