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.

DART-FL is a multitask federated learning framework designed for edge devices that must balance online inference and model training under limited resources. It dynamically allocates resources between inference and training based on current inference backlog and service capacity, then distributes remaining training capacity among tasks using a queue‑aware scheduler that adjusts loss weights. Experiments on image classification datasets with synthetic and real workloads show that DART‑FL adapts to bursty inference demand, improving accuracy for high‑demand tasks while preserving overall multitask performance.

The paper addresses the mismatch between learner and client data distributions in federated learning, noting that traditional client selection methods often ignore this misalignment. It introduces a dynamic, influence-aware client selection framework that uses a small proxy dataset to estimate each client's utility for the learner’s objective, prioritizing informative sources while mitigating noise and heterogeneity. Experiments on CIFAR-10 with heterogeneous partitions show the proposed method outperforms static and dynamic baselines, achieving faster convergence and higher accuracy.
