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.

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.

FedSAP is a federated learning framework that addresses heterogeneous edge devices by using structured pruning as a budget-constrained tri-state channel allocation. It partitions model channels into a Global pool, pseudo-domain-specific Private pools, and a Dropped state, allowing broadly useful features to be shared while isolating domain-sensitive updates. Experiments on Digits and Office-Caltech datasets show FedSAP achieving higher mean global accuracy than the strongest baseline while supporting up to 80% client pruning ratios.
