Hierarchical federated learning (HFL) enables distributed training of models across multiple devices, with edge servers and a cloud edge server facilitating privacy-preserving training. This paper explores HFL in vehicular networks, focusing on highly mobile devices. Convergence analysis reveals that mobility affects speed by combining edge data and shuffling models, while also increasing the convergence rate when incorporating diverse data. Simulation results show that mobility boosts model accuracy for convolutional neural networks trained on CIFAR-10, with up to 15.1% improvement.

HFL lets devices train models together without sharing sensitive information. This paper looks at how HFL works in a special kind of network where devices are moving around a lot, like cars on the road. The researchers studied how this mobility affects how well the models learn. They found that mobility actually helps the models become more accurate by combining data from different sources and shuffling the models to make them work better together. This means that as devices move around, they can share their knowledge with each other and get even smarter.
