Concepts behind "federated learning"
The curriculum that explains the ideas these questions test.
Core
Differential PrivacyDifferential privacy adds calibrated noise to data, queries, or training so the output is provably insensitive to any single individual's record, bounding what can be learned about any one person. In ML, DP-SGD clips and noises gradients to limit memorization and defend against membership-inference attacks. The cost is a privacy-utility trade-off controlled by a parameter epsilon. Applied-AI interviews probe it because it is the rigorous, mathematically-backed privacy tool, and because models can otherwise memorize and leak training data.🛡️ AI Security, Privacy & GovernanceSign in
Core
Federated LearningFederated learning trains a shared model across many devices or organizations without moving their raw data to a central server: each party computes updates locally and only the updates are aggregated. It trades communication cost, data heterogeneity, and privacy leakage against the benefit of training on data that legally or practically cannot be pooled. Applied AI interviews probe it to see whether you can distinguish the genuine fit (mobile keyboards, multi-hospital models) from the cases where centralizing data or using differential privacy alone is simpler.🛡️ AI Security, Privacy & GovernanceSign in
