Time Series Analysis and Modeling with Federated Leaning Techniques in Cloud Edge Scenario: A Case Study on Environmental Air Quality in Homes
摘要
This study addresses the problem of air quality in homes, focusing on the analysis and research of environmental patterns linked to different domestic activities. Based on a real-world dataset composed of sensor data collected in real time from six homes over a 14-day period, this research aims to identify how daily activities impact indoor air quality using two different approaches: the first in which each household uses its own data to train its own models. The second scenario in which there is a federated collaboration without sharing the data. In particular, through the definition of a detailed methodology, a pipeline is described that starts from data preprocessing, followed by the application of machine and federated learning techniques including the use of K-Means with Dynamic Time Warping (DWT) to detect and associate patterns of air quality variation, leading up to the validation of the results.
