Abstract

The level of privacy protection needed for IoT depends on various factors and considerations. Factors such as the sensitivity of the data at stake, compliance with stringent data protection regulations, alignment with user privacy expectations, and the potential for misuse underscore the need for a nuanced approach. Additionally, the security integrity of the entire IoT ecosystem, encompassing device security, network fortification, and data storage, significantly influences the imperative for robust privacy safeguards. The work introduces a pioneering decentralized Privacy-Preserving AI system tailored for the Internet of Things (IoT), emphasizing user privacy while harnessing the collaborative power of decentralized learning. The system integrates two key algorithms, K-Means clustering and Random Forest (RF), each fortified with robust privacy-preserving mechanisms. The K-Means algorithm strategically applies Differential Privacy, introducing controlled noise during clustering to protect sensitive individual data points. Concurrently, the Random Forest algorithm employs ensemble learning, allowing each IoT device to contribute to local decision tree creation with the addition of Laplace noise for safeguarding sensitive data. The decentralized model ensures secure, peer-to-peer collaboration during updates, facilitating the creation of a Global AI Model that embodies collective knowledge. The workflow involves local data processing, privacy-preserving algorithms, secure collaborative updates, and model distribution. The proposed approach strikes a delicate balance between utility and data protection, offering a powerful and privacy-respecting solution for AI models in decentralized IoT environments. The system's architecture, algorithms, and workflow, emphasizing its significance in ensuring robust privacy while advancing AI capabilities in IoT applications.
