arXiv:2606. 11272v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Federated Learning (FL) enables collaborative and privacy-preserving model training across distributed clients, but most existing FL systems implicitly assume data stationarity.

arXiv:2606. 16891v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Federated Learning is rapidly evolving beyond the exchange of traditional model weights and gradients, yet existing definitions fail to capture the full scope of modern payloads like synthetic data and federated analytics.

arXiv:2607. 04170v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Federated Learning (FL) enables decentralized training without data sharing, but suffers from statistical heterogeneity across clients, leading to client drift, poor generalization, and sharp minima compared to centralized training.

arXiv:2608. 02250v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Federated learning (FL) is a popular distributed learning framework where multiple clients perform local training and a server aggregates the locally updated models.

arXiv:2606. 28342v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Decentralized learning is a promising paradigm for collaborative training in mobile and pervasive systems, as it avoids a central coordinator and does not require sharing raw data.

arXiv:2607. 23029v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Federated learning enables collaborative model training across distributed clients without centralising their data, yet privacy remains a persistent concern because the shared model updates can leak information about local datasets.

arXiv:2408. 05886v5 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Heterogeneous system configurations of distributed clients connected to the central server (CS) via a time-varying wireless network pose significant challenges for popular distributed machine learning (ML) algorithms such as federated learning (FL).
By Ferdous Pervej, Minseok Choi, Andreas F. Molisch
Decentralized intelligence systems with heterogeneous devices and limited coordination increasingly rely on decentralized federated learning (DFL). However, DFL suffers from convergence inefficiency under data heterogeneity due to the use of a uniform learning rate (LR) that ignores layer-specific optimization needs.

arXiv:2606. 10774v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Decentralized Federated Learning (DFL) over lossy wireless networks faces two key challenges: selection bias, where updates from poor-quality links are systematically underrepresented due to partial model reception, and update staleness, where asynchronous nodes contribute outdated information.
