Resumo
In this paper we analyse the use of techniques that will help us to apply federated learning in the context of robotics. Federated learning allows the building of a global model from data that is collected locally, at different devices and without data sharing. Nowadays there are already solutions that face the problem of data heterogeneity (non i.i.d). Nevertheless, even when there seem to be a common task that guides the federated learning, the local implementation or details are not exactly identical. This is particularly important in the case of robotics. In this paper we analyse the performance of different techniques that allow us to identify malicious learners, or minority dissenting learners. This identification will allow to modulate the impact of these learners in the global model. Finally, in order to apply federated learning in the context of robotics, we also need strategies which allow the learning of a model when the sensors on the robots are heterogeneous.
