PACE introduces a propagation‑aware collaborative correction for one‑shot personalized federated graph learning. Each client sends a rank‑r update and a diagonal sketch of message moments, allowing the server to construct a correction that anchors to the receiver’s local model. A convex negative‑log‑likelihood calibration selects a single coefficient to blend local and external logits, improving accuracy and weighted‑F1 on most datasets while preserving local predictions when the correction is unhelpful.

arXiv:2509. 18171v5 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Federated graph learning (FGL) trains a shared graph model across clients whose local graphs differ in node features, labels, and connectivity while keeping raw graph data decentralized.

Simultaneous assessment of medical imaging and patient records is often required in clinical diagnosis. However, standard machine learning algorithms cannot analyze these data types together. Meanwhil...
OmniMed‑FL is a multimodal federated learning framework that fuses chest radiographs and synthetic patient notes to classify five clinical conditions. The study benchmarks eight fusion strategies, three initializations, and four missing‑text imputation rules across 3–20 hospital clients under non‑IID Dirichlet partitioning, showing that federated approaches (FedAvg, FedProx, SCAFFOLD‑AdamW) outperform local‑only training. Multimodal fusion consistently improves performance, achieving macro‑F1 scores up to 0.956 on the synthetic corpus and 0.906 on the radiograph corpus.

arXiv:2607. 04170v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Federated Learning (FL) enables decentralized training without data sharing, but suffers from statistical heterogeneity across clients, leading to client drift, poor generalization, and sharp minima compared to centralized training.
