SELECTIVE REPORTING OF MACHINE LEARNING PARAMETERS FOR FEDERATED LEARNING

A method includes sending a data selection parameter to a client computing device, wherein the client computing device stores a distributed instance of a machine learning model, and the machine learning model includes at least a first subset of parameters and a second subset of parameters. In response to a determination that a transmission criterion is satisfied, the client computing device is caused to report the first subset of parameters based on the data selection parameter. The method further comprises obtaining the parameters of the first subset of parameters of the distributed instance from the client computing device and updating the federated learning model based on the first subset of parameters of the distributed instance from the client computing device.
