When Federated Learning Meets FABRIC

Stitching Together Innovation with FABRIC Users

Date: December 17, 2024 

Time: 2:00 PM – 3:00 PM ET

Join us on December 17, 2-3 PM ET, for an insightful webinar tailored for new users, offering a deep dive into the APPFL experiment on FABRIC featuring Zilinghan Li. This session will cover:

  • A comprehensive overview of the APPFL experiment.
  • The rationale behind selecting FABRIC as the experimental platform.
  • A live demonstration showcasing how to run the experiment 
  • How FABRIC can enhance and support your research initiatives.

The tutorial will conclude with a 15-minute Q&A session, allowing participants to engage directly with Ravi Madduri, Zilinghan Li, and Ze Yang, who all work on the APPFL experiment.

This webinar will be recorded and available on our YouTube channel for future reference. Whether new to FABRIC or seeking to optimize your experimental processes, this session will equip you with valuable insights and practical strategies.
