Abstract
A server for communication-efficient model aggregation in federated networks for connected vehicle applications is provided. The server includes a controller programmed to: obtain contributions of a plurality of vehicles in a federated learning framework; determine weights for local gradients received from the plurality of vehicles based on the contributions; adjust the weights based on a comparison of potential functions for the plurality of vehicles; and aggregate the local gradients based on the adjusted weights to obtain a global model.
