Abstrakt: As data become increasingly abundant and diverse, their potential to fuel machine learning models is increasingly vast. However, traditional centralized learning approaches, which require aggregating data into a single location, face significant challenges. Privacy concerns, stringent data protection regulations like GDPR, and the high cost of data transmission hinder the feasibility of centralizing sensitive data from disparate sources such as hospitals, financial institutions, and personal devices. Federated Learning addresses these issues by enabling collaborative model training without requiring raw data to leave its origin. This decentralized approach ensures data privacy, reduces transmission costs, and allows organizations to harness the collective intelligence of distributed data while maintaining compliance with ethical and legal standards. This review delves into FL's current applications and its potential to reshape IoT systems into more collaborative, privacy-centric, and flexible frameworks, aiming to enlighten and motivate those navigating the confluence of machine learning and IoT advancements.
