From graphons to real-world networks: kinetic opinion dynamics under selective media influence
Bertram Düring, Martina Fraia, Alessandro Licciardi
We propose a kinetic model of opinion dynamics under selective media influence on both graphon-based and real-world networks. The media action, inspired by Hallin's theory of spher…
Tackling Heterogeneity in Federated Learning via Variance-Reduced Boltzmann Sampling within Homogeneous Social Coalitions
Alessandro Licciardi, Roberta Raineri, Anton Proskurnikov +2
Federated Learning (FL) enables privacy-preserving collaborative model training, but its effectiveness is often limited by client data heterogeneity. We introduce a client-selectio…
Wavelet Scattering Transform and Fourier Representation for Offline Detection of Malicious Clients in Federated Learning
Alessandro Licciardi, Davide Leo, Davide Carbone
Federated Learning (FL) enables the training of machine learning models across decentralized clients while preserving data privacy. However, the presence of anomalous or corrupted…
Interaction-Aware Gaussian Weighting for Clustered Federated Learning
Alessandro Licciardi, Davide Leo, Eros Fanì +2
Federated Learning (FL) emerged as a decentralized paradigm to train models while preserving privacy. However, conventional FL struggles with data heterogeneity and class imbalance…
Wavelet Scattering Transform for Gravitational Waves Analysis. An Application to Glitch Characterization
Alessandro Licciardi, Davide Carbone, Lamberto Rondoni +1
Gravitational waves, first predicted by Albert Einstein within the framework of general relativity, were confirmed in 2015 by the LIGO/Virgo collaboration, marking a pivotal breakt…
WhaleNet: a Novel Deep Learning Architecture for Marine Mammals Vocalizations on Watkins Marine Mammal Sound Database
Alessandro Licciardi, Davide Carbone
Marine mammal communication is a complex field, hindered by the diversity of vocalizations and environmental factors. The Watkins Marine Mammal Sound Database (WMMD) constitutes a…
