FedPM: Federated Learning Using Second-order Optimization with Preconditioned Mixing of Local Parameters
Hiro Ishii, Kenta Niwa, Hiroshi Sawada +3
We propose Federated Preconditioned Mixing (FedPM), a novel Federated Learning (FL) method that leverages second-order optimization. Prior methods--such as LocalNewton, LTDA, and F…
Learning to assess subjective impressions from speech
Yuto Kondo, Hirokazu Kameoka, Kou Tanaka +2
We tackle a new task of training neural network models that can assess subjective impressions conveyed through speech and assign scores accordingly, inspired by the work on automat…
