Federated Learning
Biography
Guojun Tang is a PhD student at DENOS Lab working on federated learning for health data. He is a co-author of COLA-GLM, the lab’s collaborative one-shot and lossless algorithm for generalized linear models on decentralized healthcare data, and his research addresses robustness under non-IID data and adversarial clients through adaptive aggregation and efficient client contribution computation. His work also spans blockchain-based federated learning.
