Tech Talk: Simplifying Edge AI with NVIDIA FLARE and Meta ExecuTorch
Speaker: Yuan-Ting Hsieh (NVIDIA) , Chester Chen (NVIDIA)
Abstract: This talk shares our hands-on journey building scalable, privacy-preserving federated learning across heterogeneous edge environments—starting with Meta’s ExecuTorch on iPhones and expanding to Android devices and beyond. By integrating NVIDIA FLARE with ExecuTorch, we’ve enabled on-device training without requiring data scientists to write device-specific code (e.g., Objective-C/Swift or Java/Kotlin). Instead, they can focus entirely on model architecture and training.
We’ll highlight the power of our device simulator for rapid development and testing and introduce our hierarchical federated learning system to support millions of devices. Our modular approach lays the foundation to support other ML frameworks beyond deep learning, further expanding the reach of federated learning at the edge. Join us to see how we’re supporting both cross-silo and cross-device use cases with NVIDIA FLARE
