From Centralized Machine Learning to Edge AI - Research at the Institute for Data Engineering

Today's Machine Learning (ML) approaches are mostly based on a centralized approach, i.e., data is sent to a centralized entity (very often located in the cloud), where ML training is carried out. However, especially in industrial scenarios, companies are very often not keen on sharing their (raw) data with the cloud, particularly if ML training and model generation are provided by an external party (e.g., the vendor of a machine).

 

 

Figure 1 Federated Learning in Industrial Settings

Edge AI offers an alternative approach, by training and applying ML models close to the data sources. One particular approach to Edge AI is Federated Learning (FL), which allows distributed ML and only sharing the learned model with other entities. This leads to benefits for both data privacy and communication overhead. In this talk, we will motivate FL, provide some insights on how to use it, and discuss some recent research results.

Research Collaborations with Smart and Medium Enterprises (SMEs)

In this presentation, Benjamin S. Storey will refer about the possible role of Smart and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) in research projects. As an example, the project SiToLub (Simulation tools for the design of safe and sustainable lubricants), which is in its first steps, is used as an example to describe the areas in which the Ascora GmbH is involved as a software house. The creation of a common ontology and the consolidation of the different measurement and test results from partners and other available data sources are described. It will also be explained how to augment data models using synthetic data and subsequent AI-assisted decision-making based on given specifications and weighting matrices.
