Continuous learning faces the challenge of catastrophic forgetting. Our research findings indicate that in unsupervised federated continual learning (UFCL), the limited model capacity and interference among participants are the key factors contributing to this problem. Specifically, the fixed capacity of the model restricts its ability to retain historical knowledge. Besides, the indiscriminate aggregation of weights from multiple participants can cause interference, damaging the model memory. To address these challenges, we propose FedFRR, a federated anti-forgetting representation learning approach. FedFRR fits the participants’ data distribution through a weighted combination of primary network units (PNU) in the model and optimizes model memory by adjusting the structure of PNUs. Additionally, FedFRR addresses interference by truncating the PNU with less weight change, thus reducing the scope of weight aggregation. The experimental results demonstrate that FedFRR achieves state-of-the-art performance, significantly enhancing the model’s anti-forgetting ability.

In order to solve the problem of insufficient accuracy of Web service QoS prediction, a joint QoS prediction method for Web services based on the deep fusion of features was proposed by considering the hidden environmental preference information in QoS and the common characteristics of multi-class QoS. QoS data was modeled as user-service bipartite graph at first, then, multi-component graph convolution neural network was used for feature extraction and mapping, and weighted fusion method was used for the same dimensional mapping of multi-class of QoS features. Subsequently, the attention factor decomposition machine was used to extract the first-order features, second-order interactive features and high-order interactive features of the mapped feature vector. Finally, the results of each part were combined to achieve the joint QoS prediction. The experimental results show that the proposed method is superior to the existing QoS prediction methods in terms of root mean square error (RMSE) and average absolute error (MAE). IEEE
