PRIVACY ENHANCED FEDERATED TRAINING AND INFERENCE OVER VERTICALLY AND HORIZONTALLY PARTITIONED DATA - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18166027 titled 'PRIVACY ENHANCED FEDERATED TRAINING AND INFERENCE OVER VERTICALLY AND HORIZONTALLY PARTITIONED DATA
Simplified Explanation:
This patent application relates to systems, devices, and methods for federated training and inferencing. It involves training an inferential model using data from multiple parties without directly sharing private data.
- The system includes a memory storing computer executable components and a processor executing these components.
- The modeling component trains the inferential model using horizontally and vertically partitioned data with a random decision tree.
- The inference component generates inferences in response to queries without sharing first party private data.
Key Features and Innovation:
- Federated training and inferencing system
- Use of random decision tree for training inferential model
- Protection of first party private data during inferencing
Potential Applications:
This technology can be applied in various fields such as healthcare, finance, and marketing for collaborative data analysis without compromising data privacy.
Problems Solved:
- Secure inferencing without sharing sensitive data
- Efficient training of inferential models using distributed data sources
Benefits:
- Enhanced data privacy protection
- Improved collaboration among multiple parties
- Efficient and accurate inferencing process
Commercial Applications:
Potential commercial applications include secure data analysis platforms for industries that require collaborative data processing while maintaining data privacy.
Questions about Federated Training and Inferencing:
1. How does federated training differ from traditional centralized training methods? 2. What are the key challenges in implementing federated training and inferencing in real-world applications?
Frequently Updated Research:
Stay updated on the latest advancements in federated learning and data privacy regulations to ensure compliance and optimize performance.
Original Abstract Submitted
Systems, devices, computer program products and/or computer-implemented methods of use provided herein relate to federated training and inferencing. A system can comprise a memory that stores computer executable components, and a processor that executes the computer executable components stored in the memory, wherein the computer executable components can comprise a modeling component that trains an inferential model using data from a plurality of parties and comprising horizontally partitioned data and vertically partitioned data, wherein the modeling component employs a random decision tree comprising the data to train the inferential model, and an inference component that responds to a query, employing the inferential model, by generating an inference, wherein first party private data, of the data, originating from a first passive party of the plurality of parties, is not directly shared with other passive parties of the plurality of parties to generate the inference.
