Towards a Cloud Fog Edge System for Smart Building

The article outlines a vision and recent progress toward a decentralized system that learns from real‑time building data, treating the building itself as a data center to enhance privacy and reduce dependence on external clouds. It introduces a lightweight, Kubernetes‑like orchestration framework for deploying AI services on low‑power microcontrollers, such as those in the Arduino ecosystem, enabling in‑situ learning on sensors. The work also presents experimental results for new online learning algorithms and proposes a cloud‑fog‑edge architecture using KOptim and FIWARE components.

On-Device Neural Architecture Search

arXiv:2606. 24900v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This paper proposes a new approach to near-sensor computing, in which a lightweight Neural Architecture Search (NAS) is performed directly on the deployment device to find the best tiny neural architecture for analyzing the real-time data acquired through sensors.

Adaptive AI Task Partitioning and Safe Offloading in Heterogeneous Edge-Cloud Continuum

The paper introduces a dynamic framework for partitioning neural network layers across a heterogeneous edge‑cloud continuum, adapting to runtime changes in network conditions and device capabilities. It profiles models at startup, measures link quality, and periodically re‑evaluates the partitioning to optimize performance. Experiments on a Raspberry Pi, laptop, and desktop using VGG16, AlexNet, and MobileNetV2 demonstrate energy savings of 27.09–35.82% and latency reductions of 6.34–22.92% over static partitioning.

Constrained Bayesian Optimization for Hierarchical Federated Learning in IoT Networks for Plant Disease Classification

The paper introduces a constrained Bayesian Optimization framework to efficiently configure Hierarchical Federated Learning (HFL) for plant disease classification in IoT networks. It jointly optimizes the deep learning backbone, aggregation strategy, and communication rounds while respecting energy, execution time, and accuracy constraints. Experiments on an IoT-based plant disease task show the method explores only 11.11% of the search space yet finds solutions within 1% of exhaustive search, achieving a mean optimality gap of 0.056%.

Performance Drift Detection in Machine Learning as a Service (MLaaS) for IoT Environments

The paper introduces a framework for detecting performance drift in Machine Learning as a Service (MLaaS) tailored to Internet of Things (IoT) settings. It first builds an extraction model that learns the service’s behavior from input‑output pairs, then uses this to jointly monitor changes in data and service behavior. An adaptive temporal mechanism adjusts monitoring frequency, and experiments on real datasets show significant accuracy gains and reduced miss‑detection rates compared to baseline methods.
