Federated Learning for Feature Generalization with Convex Constraints
arXiv:2606. 14416v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Federated learning (FL) often struggles with generalization due to heterogeneous client data.
The paper proposes a new federated learning approach called FedALS that reduces communication costs by varying aggregation frequencies across model layers. It derives tighter generalization bounds for one‑round and multi‑round federated learning, linking these bounds to local updates and data heterogeneity. Based on representation‑learning insights, the authors argue that infrequent aggregation of early layers and more frequent aggregation of final layers yields more generalizable models, especially in non‑iid settings, and demonstrate the method’s effectiveness experimentally.

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.
