Federated learning advances aircraft engine prognostics with robust personalization

Researchers have developed a federated learning approach to train aircraft engine prognostics models while addressing both benign and adversarial data heterogeneity. The study utilized a multi-task one-dimensional convolutional neural network on the C-MAPSS benchmark to evaluate methods for benign heterogeneity, finding that shared-representation personalization significantly improved model accuracy. For adversarial scenarios, a backdoor attack demonstrated a high success rate against standard averaging, highlighting the need for explicit safety evaluations. The Krum aggregation method proved effective in reducing attack success and withstanding coordinated attackers, especially when combined with personalization, achieving robust performance with minimal accuracy loss.
