arXiv:2606. 06786v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This paper presents a forward-looking vision for integrating the emerging multi-modal multi-task federated foundation models (M3T FedFMs) into vehicular networks, with the goal of unifying the expressive power of multi-modal multi-task foundation models (M3T FMs) with the privacy-preserving and distributed learning capabilities of federated learning (FL).

The paper introduces Encoder‑Sharing Hierarchical Multi‑Task Federated Learning (EN‑HMTFL) for vehicular ad hoc networks, combining cluster‑based hierarchical federated learning with a globally shared encoder and vehicle‑local decoders. This design allows vehicles performing different perception tasks to collaboratively learn a transferable feature representation while keeping raw data and task‑specific decoders local. Experiments on MNIST and GTSRB datasets show that EN‑HMTFL can improve accuracy by up to 24.0% and reduce communication rounds by up to 69 (28.8%) compared to a representation‑sharing benchmark.

The paper investigates how federated learning (FL) updates in vehicular edge networks can reveal client identities through gradient-based attacks on inertial sensor data, using the UCI Human Activity Recognition benchmark as a proxy. Experiments show that an honest-but-curious server can identify clients with near-perfect accuracy from unprotected updates. The authors evaluate lightweight defenses—clipping followed by Gaussian noise and ensemble FL—to mitigate this privacy risk while preserving model utility, reporting differential‑privacy budgets and empirical results across multiple attack classifiers and data partitions.

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.
