Title
Secure Coded Computation for Efficient Distributed Learning in Mobile IoT
Abstract
Distributed computation plays an essential role in cloud and edge computing. Data such as images, audio, and text can be represented as matrices to facilitate efficient computation, especially in the domains of distributed machine learning, computer vision, and signal processing. Many coded computation algorithms have been proposed for big data applications to securely partition and distribute matrices to parallel worker devices. However, these proposals have yet to be adapted for mobile platforms beyond theoretical means. Mobile IoT networks can greatly benefit from secure distributed computing, however, commercial devices such as smartphones and tablets are much more limited in resources compared to platforms in data centers, requiring special design considerations. We investigate existing distribution schemes from an operational complexity and security viewpoint and study their performance in several mobile IoT networks, identifying performance bottlenecks in regards to communication and computation costs. From our findings, we propose new, scalable algorithms optimized to handle the unique constraints of mobile IoT. Extensive evaluations of our proposals on publicly available image classification datasets show how distributed learning can be specially optimized to enhance runtime and battery performance on mobile IoT by over 10×.
