    Abstract: Broadly speaking, embodiments of the present techniques provide a method for training a machine learning, ML, model to update global and local versions of a model. We propose a novel hierarchical Bayesian approach to Federated Learning (FL), where our models reasonably describe the generative process of clients' local data via hierarchical Bayesian modeling: constituting random variables of local models for clients that are governed by a higher-level global variate. Interestingly, the variational inference in our Bayesian model leads to an optimisation problem whose block-coordinate descent solution becomes a distributed algorithm that is separable over clients and allows them not to reveal their own private data at all, thus fully compatible with FL.

    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for concept matching using a machine learning model, may include: receiving, from a user, a search query comprising: at least one criterion that represents at least one concept; inputting the received at least our criterion into at least one neural network for processing the search query; determining, using the at least one neural network, the at least one concept represented by the at least one criterion; retrieving, from a storage, at least one data item winch matches the determined at least one concept, through a cross-modal data retrieval method of retrieving a data type different from an input data type; and outputting the retrieved at least one data item in response to the search query.

    Abstract: The subject-matter of the present disclosure relates to a computer-implemented method of training a machine learning, ML, meta learner classifier model to perform few-shot image or speech classification, the method comprising: training the machine learning, ML, meta learner classifier model by: iteratively obtaining a support set and a query set of a current episode; adapting the model using the support set; measuring a performance of the adapted model using the query set; and updating the classifier based on the performance; wherein adapting the model using the support set comprises: deriving a Laplace approximated posterior using a linear classifier based on Gaussian mixture fitting; and deriving a predictive distribution using the approximated posterior; wherein measuring the performance of the adapted model using the query set comprises: determining a loss associated with the predictive distribution using the query set; and wherein updating the classifier based on the performance comprises minimising the loss.
