Decentralised Machine Learning (DML) enables collaborative machine learning without centralised input data. Federated Learning (FL) and Edge Inference are examples of DML. While tools for DML (especially FL) are starting to flourish, many are not flexible and portable enough to experiment with novel processors (e.g., RISC-V), non-fully connected network topologies, and asynchronous collaboration schemes. We overcome these limitations via a domain-specific language allowing us to map DML schemes to an underlying middleware, i.e. the FastFlow parallel programming library. We experiment with it by generating different working DML schemes on x86-64 and ARM platforms and an emerging RISC-V one. We characterise the performance and energy efficiency of the presented schemes and systems. As a byproduct, we introduce a RISC-V porting of the PyTorch framework, the first publicly available to our knowledge.

Federated Learning (FL) is becoming popular in different industrial sectors where data access is critical for security, privacy and the economic value of data itself. Unlike traditional machine learning, where all the data must be globally gathered for analysis, FL makes it possible to extract knowledge from data distributed across different organizations that can be coupled with different Machine Learning paradigms. In this work, we replicate, using Federated Learning, the analysis of a pooled dataset (with AdaBoost) that has been used to define the PRAISE score, which is today among the most accurate scores to evaluate the risk of a second acute myocardial infarction. We show that thanks to the extended-OpenFL framework, which implements AdaBoost.F, we can train a federated PRAISE model that exhibits comparable accuracy and recall as the centralised model. We achieved F1 and F2 scores which are consistently comparable to the PRAISE score study of a 16-parties federation but within an order of magnitude less time.

To achieve high performance and high energy efficiency on near-future exascale computing systems, three key technology gaps needs to be bridged. These gaps include: energy efficiency and thermal control; extreme computation efficiency via HW acceleration and new arithmetics; methods and tools for seamless integration of reconfigurable accelerators in heterogeneous HPC multi-node platforms. TEXTAROSSA aims at tackling this gap through a co-design approach to heterogeneous HPC solutions, supported by the integration and extension of HW and SW IPs, programming models and tools derived from European research.
