  • 按移动性、模型相似性与任务关联性三因素聚类,生成稳定语义对齐的车辆组。
  • 仅上传共享编码器参数,任务头本地保留,降低97%以上通信量。
  • 通过历史表现与参与度加权聚合,支持高移动、断续连接场景下高效训练。

车载自组织网络(VANETs)越来越多依赖联邦学习(FL)实现协作智能,而无需共享原始传感数据。然而,现有车载联邦学习框架通常假设所有车辆为同一任务训练单一全局模型,这在实际环境中受限——车辆执行异构学习任务,数据分布非独立同分布(non-IID),连接间歇且移动性强。为此,本文提出一种基于自编码器的可靠性优化分层多任务联邦学习(AERO-HMTFL)框架,适用于动态多跳集群化的VANET。该框架引入三权重聚类指标,综合考虑车辆移动性、共享模型相似性与任务亲和性,生成移动性稳定、语义对齐的集群。每辆车采用分模型架构,包含共享的自编码器表示模块和多个任务专用头部,仅交换共享自编码器参数,任务头部保持本地。为增强鲁棒性,集群头基于历史验证性能与参与频率进行可靠性感知聚合,而演进分组核心(EPC)则在集群间融合全局共享自编码器。大量仿真表明,相较于多任务联邦学习基准,AERO-HMTFL在持续性精度上最高提升13%,学习动态更稳定,同时将EPC级数据包传输减少约87%-97%。在短距连接条件下,收敛所需通信轮次也减少约13%-29%。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Vehicular Ad hoc Networks (VANETs) increasingly rely on federated learning (FL) to enable collaborative intelligence without sharing raw sensory data. However, most existing vehicular FL frameworks assume that all vehicles train a single global model for a common task, which limits their applicability in practical vehicular environments where vehicles may perform heterogeneous learning tasks under non-independent and identically distributed (non-IID) data, intermittent connectivity, and high mobility. To address these challenges, this paper proposes an AutoEncoder-based Reliability-Optimized Hierarchical Multi-Task Federated Learning (AERO-HMTFL) framework for dynamic multi-hop clustered VANETs. The proposed framework introduces a tri-weighted clustering metric that jointly considers vehicular mobility, shared-model similarity, and task affinity to produce mobility-stable, semantically aligned clusters. Each vehicle employs a split-model architecture comprising a shared autoencoder-based representation module and multiple task-specific heads, with only the shared autoencoder parameters exchanged while the task heads remain local. To improve robustness, cluster heads perform reliability-aware aggregation based on historical validation performance and participation frequency, while the Evolved Packet Core (EPC) conducts global shared-autoencoder fusion across clusters. Extensive simulations demonstrate that, compared with the multi-task federated learning benchmarks, AERO-HMTFL achieves up to 13% higher sustained EPC-level accuracy, exhibits more stable learning dynamics, and reduces EPC-level packet transmissions by approximately 87-97%. Under short-range connectivity, it also requires approximately 13-29% fewer communication rounds to converge.
