Federated Deep Clustering Networks for High-Dimensional and Heterogeneous Data

Original description

Clustering high-dimensional data is a fundamental task in unsupervised machine learning with applications to a variety of domains. In the centralized data scenario, this task is commonly solved using deep clustering methods that utilize deep neural network architectures to learn clustering-friendly latent space representations. In Federated Learning, where data is distributed between clients and is private, deep clustering methods are less explored. In particular, recently introduced federated deep clustering methods, despite showing very promising performance, still fall short in reliably pro...
