FedSLoP: Memory-Efficient Federated Learning with Low-Rank Gradient Projection

arXiv:2604. 24012v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Federated learning enables a population of clients to collaboratively train machine learning models without exchanging their raw data, but standard algorithms such as FedAvg suffer from slow convergence and high communication and memory costs in heterogeneous, resource-constrained environments.

Class-Grouped Normalized Momentum and Faster Hyperparameter Exploration to Tackle Class Imbalance in Federated Learning

arXiv:2607. 01474v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Class imbalance poses a critical challenge in federated learning (FL), where underrepresented classes suffer from poor predictive performance yet cannot be addressed by standard centralized techniques due to privacy and heterogeneity constraints.

Conflict-Aware Federated Fine-Tuning of Large Language Models with Mixture-of-Experts

arXiv:2606. 15625v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The continuous scaling of large language models (LLMs) incurs prohibitive computational costs, making Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) a scalable alternative for efficient fine-tuning via sparse activation.
