arXiv:2601. 09304v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Federated Learning (FL) enables distributed learning across multiple clients without sharing raw data.
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.
arXiv:2607. 08368v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: With the widespread deployment of basic models in edge intelligence, communication bandwidth has become a core bottleneck restricting the scalability of federated learning.
The paper proposes a new federated learning approach called FedALS that reduces communication costs by varying aggregation frequencies across model layers. It derives tighter generalization bounds for one‑round and multi‑round federated learning, linking these bounds to local updates and data heterogeneity. Based on representation‑learning insights, the authors argue that infrequent aggregation of early layers and more frequent aggregation of final layers yields more generalizable models, especially in non‑iid settings, and demonstrate the method’s effectiveness experimentally.
arXiv:2408. 05886v5 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Heterogeneous system configurations of distributed clients connected to the central server (CS) via a time-varying wireless network pose significant challenges for popular distributed machine learning (ML) algorithms such as federated learning (FL).
With the widespread deployment of basic models in edge intelligence, communication bandwidth has become a core bottleneck restricting the scalability of federated learning. Although one-shot federated learning alleviates this problem by minimizing communication rounds, existing iterative fine-tuning or knowledge distillation methods still face challenges such as high server-side computational costs and hyperparameter sensitivity.
arXiv:2606. 16891v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Federated Learning is rapidly evolving beyond the exchange of traditional model weights and gradients, yet existing definitions fail to capture the full scope of modern payloads like synthetic data and federated analytics.
FedCSGA is a client‑selection method for Federated Learning that uses a Genetic Algorithm to encode client subsets as chromosomes. It evaluates subsets with a non‑linear fitness function that jointly incorporates resource‑aware metrics and history‑aware participation weighting, thereby addressing both statistical and system heterogeneity simultaneously. Experiments on FMNIST, CIFAR‑10, CIFAR‑100, and Tiny‑ImageNet show that FedCSGA outperforms state‑of‑the‑art baselines, achieving up to 7.0% higher accuracy and faster convergence with fewer communication rounds.
