Abstract: a method for generating a training contribution for a neural network on a client node for a federated training of the neural network. in the method, a complete set of parameters characterizing the behavior of the neural network is received; the parameterized neural network is supplied with training examples from a predefined set so that the neural network in each case delivers outputs, wherein the training examples are labeled with target outputs; deviations of the outputs from the respective target outputs are evaluated with a predefined cost function; the parameters of the neural network are optimized with the aim of improving the evaluation by the cost function; a set of particularly relevant parameters is selected based on a predefined criterion; for the selected parameters, proposed changes are ascertained as the sought training contribution based on the result of the optimization; the proposed changes are transmitted to a server node.

Abstract: a method for adapting a neural network for processing measurement data, which network has been trained on training examples, and whose behavior is characterized by a parameter vector, to a new record of measurement data. in the method: a working space for low-dimensional representations of parameter vectors and an image which assigns to each low-dimensional representation a parameter vector are provided; in the working space, candidate representations are set up; the candidate representations are translated using the image into candidate parameter vectors; for each candidate parameter vector, a predetermined quality function is evaluated, which depends on the output of the neural network for the record in the state in which the candidate parameter vector has replaced the original parameter vector; a candidate parameter vector, for which the quality function assumes the best value, is evaluated as the optimal adaptation of the parameters of the neural network to the record.
