报告摘要：
Driving by flourishing of both distributed machine learning and mobile edge computing, there is a stringent need to combine the advantages of these technologies so as to provide the learning tasks with high performance. Edge Learning, as an emerging learning concept, is complementary to the cloud-based methods for big data analytics by enabling distributed edge nodes to cooperatively train models and conduct inferences with their local data. This talk will focus on learning paradigms, fundamental theories, and enabling technologies for Edge Learning. We will first explain the background and motivation for AI running at the network edge. Then, we will review the challenge issues existing in Edge Learning. Furthermore, we will provide an overview of the overarching architectures, frameworks, and emerging key technologies for learning performance, security, privacy, and incentive issues toward training/inference at the network edge. Finally, we will discuss future research opportunities on Edge Learning.
