• Abstract summary: We propose pFedHN for personalized Federated HyperNetworks. In this approach, a central hypernetwork model is trained to generate a set of models, one model for each client. We show that pFedHN can generalize better to new clients whose distributions differ from any client observed during training.

• Abstract: Personalized federated learning is tasked with training machine learning models for multiple clients, each with its own data distribution. The goal is to train personalized models in a collaborative way while accounting for data disparities across clients and reducing communication costs. We propose a novel approach to this problem using hypernetworks, termed pFedHN for personalized Federated HyperNetworks. In this approach, a central hypernetwork model is trained to generate a set of models, one model for each client. This architecture provides effective parameter sharing across clients, while maintaining the capacity to generate unique and diverse personal models. Furthermore, since hypernetwork parameters are never transmitted, this approach decouples the communication cost from the trainable model size. We test pFedHN empirically in several personalized federated learning challenges and find that it outperforms previous methods. Finally, since hypernetworks share information across clients we show that pFedHN can generalize better to new clients whose distributions differ from any client observed during training.

  We train models organized in a multi-level structure, called Multi-level Additive Models (MAM)'', for better knowledge-sharing across heterogeneous clients. In federated MAM (FeMAM), each client is assigned to at most one model per level and its personalized prediction sums up the outputs of models assigned to it across all levels. Experiments show that FeMAM surpasses existing clustered FL and personalized FL methods in various non-IID settings.

• Scalable Collaborative Learning via Representation Sharing [53.047460465980144]
  Federated learning (FL) and Split Learning (SL) are two frameworks that enable collaborative learning while keeping the data private (on device) In FL, each data holder trains a model locally and releases it to a central server for aggregation. In SL, the clients must release individual cut-layer activations (smashed data) to the server and wait for its response (during both inference and back propagation). In this work, we present a novel approach for privacy-preserving machine learning, where the clients collaborate via online knowledge distillation using a contrastive loss.

• An Expectation-Maximization Perspective on Federated Learning [75.67515842938299]
  Federated learning describes the distributed training of models across multiple clients while keeping the data private on-device. In this work, we view the server-orchestrated federated learning process as a hierarchical latent variable model where the server provides the parameters of a prior distribution over the client-specific model parameters. We show that with simple Gaussian priors and a hard version of the well known Expectation-Maximization (EM) algorithm, learning in such a model corresponds to FedAvg, the most popular algorithm for the federated learning setting.

  We propose an alternative to federated learning, where each client federates with other relevant clients to obtain a stronger model per client-specific objectives. We do not assume knowledge of underlying data distributions or client similarities, and allow each client to optimize for arbitrary target distributions of interest. Our method outperforms existing alternatives, while also enabling new features for personalized FL such as transfer outside of local data distributions.
