Federated learning with hierarchical clustering of local updates to improve training on non-IID data (2020)
Journal Article
Fan. (2020). Federated learning with hierarchical clustering of local updates to improve training on non-IID data. International Joint Conference on Neural Networks, https://doi.org/10.1109/IJCNN48605.2020.9207469

Federated learning (FL) is a well established method for performing machine learning tasks over massively distributed data. However in settings where data is distributed in a non-iid (not independent and identically distributed) fashion -- as is typi...

A Decade On, How Has the Visibility of Energy Changed? Energy Feedback Perceptions from UK Focus Groups (2020)
Journal Article
Fredericks, D., Fan, Z., Woolley, S., de Quincey, E., & Streeton, M. (2020). A Decade On, How Has the Visibility of Energy Changed? Energy Feedback Perceptions from UK Focus Groups. Energies, 13(10), Article ARTN 2566. https://doi.org/10.3390/en13102566

The Smart Meter Rollout Programme in the UK has required energy suppliers to offer new smart meters to customers to provide near real-time energy use information and enable two-way communication between the meter and the central system. The provision... Read More about A Decade On, How Has the Visibility of Energy Changed? Energy Feedback Perceptions from UK Focus Groups.

Visualising the Invisible: Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality as Persuasive Technologies for Energy Feedback (2020)
Conference Proceeding
David Fredericks, A., Fan, Z., & Woolley, S. I. (2020). Visualising the Invisible: Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality as Persuasive Technologies for Energy Feedback. . https://doi.org/10.1109/SmartWorld-UIC-ATC-SCALCOM-IOP-SCI.2019.00225

In the last fifteen years, the outlook for engaging direct energy feedback as a method of effectively curtailing domestic energy consumption has grown more pessimistic. Continuing studies and reviews suggest the impact of such techniques on consumers...
