Addressing modern and practical challenges in machine learning: A survey of online federated and transfer learning
It serves as a resource for professionals developing OFL and OTL frameworks, but is incremental as a survey.
This survey examines online federated learning (OFL) and online transfer learning (OTL) to address challenges like data silos and streaming data, providing an overview of their evolution, datasets, applications, and future research directions.
Online federated learning (OFL) and online transfer learning (OTL) are two collaborative paradigms for overcoming modern machine learning challenges such as data silos, streaming data, and data security. This survey explored OFL and OTL throughout their major evolutionary routes to enhance understanding of online federated and transfer learning. Besides, practical aspects of popular datasets and cutting-edge applications for online federated and transfer learning are highlighted in this work. Furthermore, this survey provides insight into potential future research areas and aims to serve as a resource for professionals developing online federated and transfer learning frameworks.
