Abstract

Wearable devices collect user information about their activities and provide insights to improve their daily lifestyles. Smart health applications have achieved great success by training Machine Learning (ML) models on a large quantity of user data from wearables. However, user privacy and scalability are becoming critical challenges for training ML models in a centralized way. Federated learning (FL) is a novel ML paradigm with the goal of training high quality models while distributing training data over a large number of devices. In this demo, we present FL4W, a FL system with wearable devices enabling training a human activity recognition classifier. We also perform preliminary analytics to investigate the model performance with increasing computation of clients.
