Inverse Probability Weighting and Age-of-Information Aggregation for Decentralized Federated Learning under Partial Reception

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underrepresented due to partial model reception, and update staleness, where asynchronous nodes contribute outdated information.

Resilient Decentralized Wireless Federated Learning via Gradient Tracking with AdamW

The paper introduces QEF-GT-AdamW, a communication‑efficient and outage‑resilient algorithm for decentralized wireless federated learning. It combines gradient tracking, AdamW adaptive optimization, and dual‑stream biased quantization with error feedback to reduce communication payloads while mitigating non‑IID data effects. The method includes a local fallback strategy for unreliable broadcasts and provides convergence guarantees under compressed, unreliable wireless communication, demonstrating improved robustness and accuracy‑communication trade‑offs on heterogeneous MNIST and CIFAR‑10 datasets.

Latent Information Sharing for Accelerating Federated Learning

The paper introduces a latent information sharing scheme for federated learning that mitigates client drift by sharing a small amount of hidden‑layer activations. The authors demonstrate both theoretically and empirically that this approach improves training efficiency while maintaining convergence guarantees and data privacy. Compared to existing methods such as FedProx, SCAFFOLD, FedPVR, FedProto, and SplitFed, the proposed method achieves higher model accuracy within a fixed round budget without adding significant communication overhead.
