Local Datasets

Local datasets are small, often project-specific datasets used to train machine learning models, addressing challenges posed by data scarcity, privacy concerns, or the need for tailored solutions. Current research focuses on techniques like federated learning, which allows collaborative model training without sharing raw data, and on developing algorithms to mitigate issues arising from data heterogeneity and limited sample sizes, including active sampling and self-distillation methods. This research is significant because it enables the development of effective machine learning models in diverse contexts, from personalized healthcare to infrastructure monitoring in resource-constrained settings, while addressing crucial privacy and efficiency considerations.
