Report examines benefits of federated learning to train AI models
10/06/2025 | EDPS
The European Data Protection Supervisor (EDPS) and Spain's data protection authority (DPA) have published a detailed report examining the role that federated learning can play in supporting artificial intelligence (AI) models to protect personal data.
