Random Layer Aggregation Effects on Federated Learning Latency and Edge Device Resource Use

Abstract

Abstract: This report synthesises findings from 8 peer-reviewed papers addressing the following research question: How does random layer aggregation in federated learning models affect inference latency and memory usage on edge devices as measured by throughput (FPS) and GPU/CPU utilization metrics. Performance evaluation is essential for assessing the quality of machine learning (ML) models and guiding deployment decisions. In federated learning (FL), assessing the performance is challenging because data are distributed across participants. 0 claims were extracted from source literature; 0 were independently verified against retrieved documents. An automated multi-reviewer quality assessment produced a score of 3.7/10. This report is a machine-generated literature synthesis and does not constitute original research.
