Online-Score-Aided Federated Learning for Resource-Constrained Wireless Clients with Continual Data Arrival

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).

FedSAP: Federated Learning with Structured Adaptive Partitioning for Multi-Domain Heterogeneous Edge Devices

FedSAP is a federated learning framework that addresses heterogeneous edge devices by using structured pruning as a budget-constrained tri-state channel allocation. It partitions model channels into a Global pool, pseudo-domain-specific Private pools, and a Dropped state, allowing broadly useful features to be shared while isolating domain-sensitive updates. Experiments on Digits and Office-Caltech datasets show FedSAP achieving higher mean global accuracy than the strongest baseline while supporting up to 80% client pruning ratios.

FedTVD: Balancing Data Quality and Quantity for Robust Federated Learning

Federated Learning (FL) enables collaborative model training across distributed client devices while preserving data privacy. However, FL faces significant challenges due to data heterogeneity, particularly in terms of label distribution skewness and variations in dataset sizes, which can lead to biased model updates and hinder convergence.

Tackling Feature-Classifier Mismatch in Federated Learning via Prompt-Driven Feature Transformation

The paper introduces FedPFT, a federated learning framework that tackles the feature‑classifier mismatch problem by using personalized prompts processed through a shared self‑attention transformation module. Unlike prior methods that either degrade the feature extractor or address the mismatch only after training, FedPFT aligns local features with the global classifier during training, improving aggregation and model performance. Experiments demonstrate that FedPFT surpasses state‑of‑the‑art methods by up to 5.07%, and gains up to 7.08% when combined with collaborative contrastive learning.
