Federated Graph Learning for EV Charging Demand Forecasting with Personalization Against Cyberattacks
Apr 30, 2024
Mitigating cybersecurity risk in electric vehicle (EV) charging demand forecasting plays a crucial role in the safe operation of collective EV chargings, the stability of the power grid, and the cost-effective infrastructure expansion. However, existing methods either suffer from the data privacy issue and the susceptibility to cyberattacks or fail to consider the spatial correlation among different stations. To address these challenges, a federated graph learning approach involving multiple charging stations is proposed to collaboratively train a more generalized deep learning model for demand forecasting while capturing spatial correlations among various stations and enhancing robustness against potential attacks. Firstly, for better model performance, a Graph Neural Network (GNN) model is leveraged to characterize the geographic correlation among different charging stations in a federated manner. Secondly, to ensure robustness and deal with the data heterogeneity in a federated setting, a message passing that utilizes a global attention mechanism to aggregate personalized models for each client is proposed. Thirdly, by concerning cyberattacks, a special credit-based function is designed to mitigate potential threats from malicious clients or unwanted attacks. Extensive experiments on a public EV charging dataset are conducted using various deep learning techniques and federated learning methods to demonstrate the prediction accuracy and robustness of the proposed approach.
Unified Multi-View Orthonormal Non-Negative Graph Based Clustering Framework
Nov 03, 2022
Spectral clustering is an effective methodology for unsupervised learning. Most traditional spectral clustering algorithms involve a separate two-step procedure and apply the transformed new representations for the final clustering results. Recently, much progress has been made to utilize the non-negative feature property in real-world data and to jointly learn the representation and clustering results. However, to our knowledge, no previous work considers a unified model that incorporates the important multi-view information with those properties, which severely limits the performance of existing methods. In this paper, we formulate a novel clustering model, which exploits the non-negative feature property and, more importantly, incorporates the multi-view information into a unified joint learning framework: the unified multi-view orthonormal non-negative graph based clustering framework (Umv-ONGC). Then, we derive an effective three-stage iterative solution for the proposed model and provide analytic solutions for the three sub-problems from the three stages. We also explore, for the first time, the multi-model non-negative graph-based approach to clustering data based on deep features. Extensive experiments on three benchmark data sets demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
DBRec: Dual-Bridging Recommendation via Discovering Latent Groups
Oct 16, 2019
In recommender systems, the user-item interaction data is usually sparse and not sufficient for learning comprehensive user/item representations for recommendation. To address this problem, we propose a novel dual-bridging recommendation model (DBRec). DBRec performs latent user/item group discovery simultaneously with collaborative filtering, and interacts group information with users/items for bridging similar users/items. Therefore, a user's preference over an unobserved item, in DBRec, can be bridged by the users within the same group who have rated the item, or the user-rated items that share the same group with the unobserved item. In addition, we propose to jointly learn user-user group (item-item group) hierarchies, so that we can effectively discover latent groups and learn compact user/item representations. We jointly integrate collaborative filtering, latent group discovering and hierarchical modelling into a unified framework, so that all the model parameters can be learned toward the optimization of the objective function. We validate the effectiveness of the proposed model with two real datasets, and demonstrate its advantage over the state-of-the-art recommendation models with extensive experiments.
