FedPS: Federated Preprocessing for structured data via aggregated Statistics

FedPS is a federated preprocessing framework that uses aggregated statistics to address missing values, inconsistent formats, and heterogeneous feature scales in structured data. It employs data-sketching techniques to summarize local datasets efficiently, enabling federated algorithms for feature scaling, encoding, discretization, and missing-value imputation. The framework also extends preprocessing-related models, such as Bayesian Linear Regression, to both horizontal and vertical federated learning settings, offering communication‑efficient and consistent pipelines for practical deployments.
