Federated learning (FL) enables collaborative learning over decentralized data silos without centralizing raw data. However, heterogeneous local architectures often induce non-aligned representation spaces, making it difficult to transfer global knowledge across silos.
arXiv:2504. 18455v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We study distributed multiview representation learning, a problem in which $K$ clients each observe a distinct but possibly statistically correlated view.

arXiv:2607. 15687v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multimodal-attributed graphs (MAGs), whose nodes carry modalities such as images and text alongside topological structure, now pervade applications including social platforms, e-commerce, and biomedical networks, offering richer semantic signals than single-modality graphs.

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:2409. 06067v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Previous studies on federated learning (FL) often encounter performance degradation due to data heterogeneity among different clients.
