Participation in 15th International Conference on the Internet of Things (IoT 2025)
November 18, 2025
Our lab member and PhD candidate, Ioannis Korontanis presented the full paper titled PEPPER: Profiling-based Edge Placement and Partitioning for Deep Learning Execution and a poster paper titled Streamlining ML Training in Kubernetes: An MLOps Architecture with Kubeflow at 15th International Conference on the Internet of Things (IoT 2025) (Vienna, Austria)
Participation in 3rd IEEE International Conference on Federated Learning Technologies and Applications (FLTA25)
October 14, 2025
Our lab member and PhD candidate, Emmanouil Kritharakis presented FedGreed at IEEE FLTA25 (Dubrovnik, 2025) — a Byzantine-robust loss-based aggregation for Federated Learning. Achieves strong resilience to adversarial attacks and outperforms robust baselines under non-IID settings.
