One-shot federated learning (OSFL) addresses the communication overhead of federated learning by limiting training to a single round, but doing so without sacrificing model quality is non-trivial, particularly when client data distributions diverge. Recent work has addressed this challenge by aggregating client knowledge on the server through the construction of transferable synthetic datasets or distillates.

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.

The paper introduces SAPE-FL, a personalization framework for Federated Learning that anchors each client’s model to both a global model and a similarity-weighted peer-averaged model. By applying dynamic, client-specific regularization based on model and output similarity, SAPE-FL balances global knowledge transfer with peer collaboration, filtering out dissimilar clients. The authors provide theoretical convergence guarantees and demonstrate empirically that SAPE-FL outperforms state‑of‑the‑art methods in highly heterogeneous and low‑data scenarios.

arXiv:2608. 15107v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Federated learning (FL) is a practical framework that can train models on distributed user data while guaranteeing data privacy; however, due to heterogeneity in which each user has a different data distribution, problems frequently arise where both global and personalization performance deteriorate simultaneously.
