Abstract
Federated Learning (FL) represents a paradigm shift in machine learning, allowing collaborative model training while keeping data localized. This approach is particularly pertinent in the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) context, where data privacy, security, and efficient utilization of distributed resources are paramount. The essence of FL in IIoT lies in its ability to learn from diverse, distributed data sources without requiring central data storage, thus enhancing privacy and reducing communication overheads. However, despite its potential, several challenges impede the wide-spread adoption of FL in IIoT, notably in ensuring interpretability and robustness. This article focuses on enabling trustworthy FL in IIoT by bridging the gap between interpretability and robustness, which is crucial for enhancing trust, improving decision-making, and ensuring compliance with regulations. Moreover, the design strategies summarized in this article ensure that FL systems in IIoT are transparent and reliable, vital in industrial settings where decisions have significant safety and economic impacts. The case studies in the IIoT environment driven by trustworthy FL models are provided, wherein the practical insights of trustworthy communications between IIoT systems and their end users are highlighted.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
