Name of the participant: Lennart Behme
Description of the IT research project: The project ”Federated-Data-as-a-Service: A System for Private and Collaborative Machine Learning”, aims at developing a system for end-to-end Federated Learning (FL) across organizational boundaries. Current FL systems do not solve the data management challenges of cross-silo FL, such as data discovery, data integration, or system-inherent privacy guarantees. Therefore, in order to fully leverage FL’s capabilities for training machine learning models in a privacy-preserving manner, there is a need for a new system design that supports organizations throughout the entire process of implementing FL use cases. In his project, Lennart is collaborating with Volkswagen, one of the largest car manufacturers in the world.
