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.

The paper introduces CELM, a data‑free framework for federated learning that estimates class‑wise contribution by maximizing logits. It constructs a cross‑client evidence matrix to quantify each client’s competence and coverage for each class, then uses this matrix to compute weighted aggregation that upweights clients offering strong evidence for underrepresented classes. The method maintains stability through simplex constraints and momentum smoothing, and it is compatible with standard FL pipelines, showing improved robustness to class imbalance and heterogeneity on vision benchmarks.

FedCC is a new algorithm for distillation-based federated learning that tackles label distribution skew by allowing clients to mark ambiguous samples as 'unknown' instead of forcing a potentially wrong classification. By adding this extra class and calibrating pseudo-labels on a public dataset, FedCC balances confidence across majority and minority classes. Experiments show that FedCC outperforms existing methods, achieving 67.3% accuracy even when each client has data from only one of ten classes, whereas baselines drop to near-random performance.
