arXiv:2607. 20914v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Federated parameter-efficient fine-tuning (PEFT) enables communication-efficient adaptation of large pretrained models on decentralized edge data, but it remains fragile under non-IID client heterogeneity.

arXiv:2606. 26772v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Differentially private (DP) training of neural networks is often hindered by the large amount of noise required by gradient-based methods such as DP-SGD, which repeatedly inject high-dimensional noise in parameter space throughout training.
