treeXnets: Comparing Federated Tree-BasedModels and Neural Networks on Tabular Data
William Lindskog-Münzing,

Abstract:Federated Learning (FL) is a privacy-aware machine learning paradigm. It was initially designed to fit parametric models, namely Neural Networks (NNs) and thus, it has excelled on image, audio and text tasks. However, FL for tabular data still receives little attention. Tree-Based Models (TBMs) perform better than NNs on tabular data in a centralized setting, and are starting to see FL integrations. In this paper, we evaluate federated TBMs and NNs for horizontal FL, with varying data partitions, on 31 dataset… Show more
