Ampere is a new split federated learning system that reduces both on‑device computation and device‑server communication while improving accuracy. It trains device and server blocks sequentially with local losses, eliminating gradient transfers, and uses a lightweight auxiliary network to consolidate activations into a single transfer. Experiments on CNNs and Transformers show up to 11.70 pp accuracy gains, 18.6× faster training, 911× less communication, and 14.5× less computation compared to state‑of‑the‑art SFL baselines.
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.

arXiv:2607. 06979v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Federated Learning (FL) enables training shared models on private, on-device data, but production deployments remain constrained to slow, multi-day refresh cycles due to the complexity of coordinating massive client populations.
FedPGT introduces a progressive gradient transmission scheme for vehicular federated learning over time‑varying channels, where vehicles send high‑magnitude gradient entries according to instantaneous channel conditions. The authors derive a convergence bound showing diminishing returns governed by a power‑law decay, and formulate a stochastic optimization problem that is solved via a Lyapunov drift‑plus‑penalty approach with per‑slot surrogate variables. A low‑complexity resource allocation algorithm is proposed, and experiments on CIFAR‑10 and Argoverse demonstrate a 3.65% accuracy gain and a 12.66% reduction in displacement error compared to state‑of‑the‑art baselines.

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.
