Abstract: | Energy forecasting presents unique challenges due to temporal dependencies, seasonal variations, and di- verse consumption patterns that require specialized fed- erated learning approaches to capture local patterns while preserving data privacy. While Federated Learn- ing (FL) has emerged as a privacy-preserving alterna- tive for training models on decentralized data, standard algorithms like FedAvg often falter under the non-IID conditions inherent in energy consumption data, lead- ing to reduced convergence speed and suboptimal model accuracy. To address these limitations, we propose P- FedNIP, a novel multi-layered personalized federated learning framework. P-FedNIP extends the FedNIP algorithm by introducing a sophisticated architecture that combines (1) EMD-based client clustering to un- derstand the data landscape, (2) intelligent client selec- tion to optimize training, (3) FedProx regularization to prevent local model drift, and (4) adaptive fine-tuning for deep personalization. This approach aims to create both a robust global model and highly accurate person- alized models tailored to the unique energy consump- tion patterns of each participant. |
