Powerful predictions and privacy
MBZUAI ·
MBZUAI Assistant Professor Samuel Horváth is researching federated learning to address the tension between data privacy and the predictive power of machine learning models. Federated learning trains models on decentralized data, keeping sensitive information on devices. Horváth's research focuses on designing algorithms that can efficiently train on distributed data while respecting user privacy. Why it matters: This work is crucial for advancing AI in sensitive domains like healthcare, where privacy regulations limit centralized data collection.
