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.

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.
arXiv:2607. 04189v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Federated Learning (FL) is fundamentally challenged by statistical heterogeneity, where non-identically distributed (non-IID) data induces client drift that severely hampers global convergence.
