The 2nd IEEE International Conference on Federated Learning Technologies and Applications (FLTA2024).

https://flta-conference.org/

17-20 September 2024. Valencia, Spain.

Federated Learning, AI/ML new frontier, is a revolutionary technology in decentralized systems that enables privacy-preserving distributed Machine Learning. It is now playing a significant role in Edge Intelligence and pioneering several applications such as Healthcare and Medical Research, Smart Cities and Industry 4.0, Automotive and Mobility Services, beyond 5G\6G applications, and much more. It promises to move the learning to the network edge, closer to the data allocation. This trend enables real-time decision-making, Data privacy preservation, and elastic scalability and efficiency. In essence, FL leads to sustainability in data privacy and security of large-scale data analytics. This conference aims to attract the work of researchers and practitioners in Federated Learning to share and exchange their experiences and research studies in both academia and industry.

FLTA 2024 aims to provide attendees with a comprehensive understanding of FL communication, computing, and system requirements. Through keynote speeches, panel discussions, and presentations, attendees can engage with leading experts and learn about the latest developments and future trends in the field.
