About International Chair in DS & XAI

Towards the goal of developing further studies on Trustworthy, Transparent, Ethical and Human-centered Data Science and Artificial Intelligence, the International Chair in Data Science and Explainable Artificial Intelligence was founded in September 2018, aiming to develop a roadmap that starts from Industry 4.0 to reach Industry 5.0 and beyond which drives sustainability since 2018. Studies about Industry 5.0 will focus on combining human creativity and craftsmanship with the speed, productivity, and consistency of AI systems.

  Objectives

Embedded Artificial Intelligence Platforms

   Federated learning-based anomaly detection testbed

  Light-weight federated learning-based anomaly detection for time-series data in industrial control systems

Federated learning-based anomaly detection is developed and studied by the collaboration of Future Internet Laboratory – HUST, IAD – UDA, and University of Lille – France.

Main goal is to design an AD system (FATRAF) that has a fast training time and is light weight to accommodate frequent learning update, while still either retaining the same or improving the detection performance in comparison with some existing AD solutions for ICSs in the literature.

Federated learning (FL)-based anomaly detection architecture was proposed a new hybrid solution of Autoencoder, Transformer and Fourier transform operating in a chain to enhance the detection performance, whilst reducing the training time and being more lightweight for more feasible deployment over edge devices of an IIoT-based industrial control system.

FATRAF comprises two main components:

  • Edge sites: In an IIoT-based smart factory monitored by industrial control systems, there are various manufacturing zones, in which sensor systems are installed to gather readings that signify operating states over time. Subsequently, the time-series data, as the local data, is transmitted wirelessly to edge devices in the vicinity of the corresponding manufacturing zones. Designated to monitor anomalies, these edge devices employ the local data as inputs for training its own local anomaly detection model - ATRAF (AE-Transformer-Fourier learning model). This deployment allows detecting anomalies timely right at the edge sites, making use of the computing capacity of edge devices, and distributing heavy computation tasks that could overload the cloud server.

  • Cloud Server: The cloud server undertakes two primary functions: system initialization and aggregation of local models sent from different edges. The whole process of model aggregation and global model updating down to all local models are called Federated Learning.

The procedure of FATRAF can be summarized into the following key stages:

  1. System Initialization: At the beginning, the cloud server establishes a global model with specific learning parameters and sending it to each edge device of corresponding edge site.
  2. Local Training: After receiving the initial configuration, by utilizing the on-site data collected from sensors, edge devices conduct a local training process for their Autoencoder blocks. Subsequently, at each edge site, the local training data is fed into the encoder part of the trained Autoencoder model so as to obtain corresponding embeddings or code sequences. These code sequences are then applied to train the Transformer-Fourier block.
  3. Local Model Update: After the local training, each edge device sends the learnable parameters of the Transformer-Fourier block wtr+1 to the cloud server for aggregation. Specifically, wtr+1 includes weight and bias matrices from WQ, WK, WV, WZ nodes in the Masked Self-attention sublayer and all linear transformations in the Position-wise Feedforward sublayer along with Final Feedforward Network.
  4. Model Aggregation: After deriving trained weights wtr+1 from all edge clients, the cloud server federates them and constructs a new global model version.
  5. Global Update: Finally, the cloud server broadcasts back the new configuration wt+1 to each edge device as to update the local models of Transformer-Fourier block. In the subsequent learning rounds, edge devices use the updated models to continue training and the communication process will repeat in order to optimize the local Transformer-Fourier models until the global learning model converges.

Essential devices for testbed in Federated-learning mode, the experiment is conducted using:

  1. CPU Intel Core i9-12900K
  2. GPU ROG STRIX RTX3090
  3. Edge device: raspberry pi 4 (quantify: 05)

Besides, we apply FL architecture in Heathcare (i.e. ECG) system. First phase, we develop methodology based on sample data. Then, we tend to collect data and extend our system by using IoT sensor (i.e. ECG) in person.
