- Abstract: Federated learning (FL) has recently emerged as an attractive decentralized
solution for wireless networks to collaboratively train a shared model while
keeping data localized. As a general approach, existing FL methods tend to
assume perfect knowledge of the Channel State Information (CSI) during the
training phase, which may not be easy to acquire in case of fast fading
channels. Moreover, literature analyses either consider a fixed number of
clients participating in the training of the federated model, or simply assume
that all clients operate at the maximum achievable rate to transmit model data.
In this paper, we fill these gaps by proposing a training process that takes
channel statistics as a bias to minimize the convergence time under imperfect
CSI. Numerical experiments demonstrate that it is possible to reduce the
training time by neglecting model updates from clients that cannot sustain a
minimum predefined transmission rate. We also examine the trade-off between
number of clients involved in the training process and model accuracy as a
function of different fading regimes.

Federated learning (FL) enables the training of a model leveraging decentralized data in client sites while preserving privacy by not collecting data.

Federated learning has emerged as an important distributed learning paradigm, where a server aggregates a global model from many client-trained models while having no access to the client data.
We propose a novel federated learning system that employs zero-shot data augmentation on under-represented data to mitigate statistical heterogeneity and encourage more uniform accuracy performance across clients in federated networks.
We study two variants of this scheme, Fed-ZDAC (federated learning with zero-shot data augmentation at the clients) and Fed-ZDAS (federated learning with zero-shot data augmentation at the server).
