Bayesian modelling helps applied researchers to articulate assumptions about their data and develop models tailored for specific applications. Thanks to good methods for approximate posterior inference, researchers can now easily build, use, and revise complicated Bayesian models for large and rich data. These capabilities, however, bring into focus the problem of model criticism. Researchers need tools to diagnose the fitness of their models, to understand where they fall short, and to guide their revision. In this paper, we develop a new method for Bayesian model criticism, the holdout predictive check (HPC). Holdout predictive check are built on posterior predictive check (PPC), a seminal method that checks a model by assessing the posterior predictive distribution on the observed data. However, PPC use the data twice—both to calculate the posterior predictive and to evaluate it—which can lead to uncalibrated p-values. Holdout predictive check, in contrast, compare the posterior predictive distribution to a draw from the population distribution, a heldout dataset. This method blends Bayesian modelling with frequentist assessment. Unlike the PPC, we prove that the HPC is properly calibrated. Empirically, we study HPC on classical regression, a hierarchical model of text data, and factor analysis.

Recommender systems are effective in mitigating information overload, yet the centralized storage of user data raises significant privacy concerns. Cross-user federated recommendation(CUFR) provides a promising distributed paradigm to address these concerns by enabling privacy-preserving recommendations directly on user devices. In this survey, we review and categorize current progress in CUFR, focusing on four key aspects: privacy, security, accuracy, and efficiency. Firstly,we conduct an in-depth privacy analysis, discuss various cases of privacy leakage, and then review recent methods for privacy protection. Secondly, we analyze security concerns and review recent methods for untargeted and targeted *** untargeted attack methods, we categorize them into data poisoning attack methods and parameter poisoning attack methods. For targeted attack methods, we categorize them into user-based methods and item-based methods. Thirdly,we provide an overview of the federated variants of some representative methods, and then review the recent methods for improving accuracy from two categories: data heterogeneity and high-order information. Fourthly, we review recent methods for improving training efficiency from two categories: client sampling and model compression. Finally, we conclude this survey and explore some potential future research topics in CUFR.

The primary objective of fog computing is to minimize the reliance of IoT devices on the cloud by leveraging the resources of fog network. Typically, IoT devices offload computation tasks to fog to meet different task requirements such as latency in task execution, computation costs, etc. So, selecting such a fog node that meets task requirements is a crucial challenge. To choose an optimal fog node, access to each node's resource availability information is essential. Existing approaches often assume state availability or depend on a subset of state information to design mechanisms tailored to different task requirements. In this paper, OptiFog: a cluster-based fog computing architecture for acquiring the state information followed by optimal fog node selection and task offloading mechanism is proposed. Additionally, a continuous time Markov chain based stochastic model for predicting the resource availability on fog nodes is proposed. This model prevents the need to frequently synchronize the resource availability status of fog nodes, and allows to maintain an updated state information. Extensive simulation results show that OptiFog lowers task execution latency considerably, and schedules almost all the tasks at the fog layer compared to the existing state-of-the-art. IEEE
