arXiv:2605. 11165v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Federated learning (FL) in heterogeneous environments remains challenging because client models often differ in both architecture and data distribution.
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.
The paper presents a comprehensive benchmark for Domain Generalization (DG) in smartphone-based Human Activity Recognition (HAR), running over 410,000 experiments across multiple architectures, training objectives, initialization strategies, and architectural tweaks. It finds that individual DG components offer limited, highly conditional improvements, while combined configurations often yield stronger, sometimes super‑additive gains that depend on the model and shift scenario. The study also highlights that current source‑validation selection captures only a fraction of the potential oracle performance, underscoring the need for joint DG design and robust model‑selection methods.
arXiv:2606. 03143v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Modern LLM agents increasingly rely on skill libraries to handle complex tasks, making skill evolution a primary driver of self-improvement.
The paper introduces FedPFT, a federated learning framework that tackles the feature‑classifier mismatch problem by using personalized prompts processed through a shared self‑attention transformation module. Unlike prior methods that either degrade the feature extractor or address the mismatch only after training, FedPFT aligns local features with the global classifier during training, improving aggregation and model performance. Experiments demonstrate that FedPFT surpasses state‑of‑the‑art methods by up to 5.07%, and gains up to 7.08% when combined with collaborative contrastive learning.
