Claim 10:
11. A method of classifying an instance using Machine Learning, ML, the method being performed by a mobile communications device and comprising:
acquiring a feature vector representing the instance,
classifying the instance by applying the feature vector to a local first ML model of the mobile communications device,
wherein the local first ML model has been trained;

calculating a confidence level for the classification of the instance, and if the calculated confidence level is less than a threshold confidence level:
acquiring information identifying one or more other mobile communications devices for classifying an instance using ML, which other mobile communications devices are selected based on a respective location of the one or more other mobile communications devices being the same as, or in proximity of, a location of the mobile communications device, or being in proximity of a location associated with the instance, and
transmitting a classification request message comprising the feature vector to the one or more other mobile communications devices.
