US Patent 11551153 Localized learning from a global model

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for obtaining a global model for a particular activity, the global model derived based on input data representing multiple observations associated with the particular activity performed by a collection of users; determining, using the global model, expected data representing an expected observation associated with the particular activity performed by a particular user; receiving, by a computing device operated by the particular user, particular data representing an actual observation associated with the particular activity performed by the particular user; determining, by the computing device and using (i) the expected data and (ii) the particular data, residual data of the particular user; and deriving a local model of the particular user based on the residual data.
