• Abstract: We are interested in developing a unified machine learning model over many mobile devices for practical learning tasks, where each device only has very few training data. This is a commonly encountered situation in mobile computing scenarios, where data is scarce and distributed while the tasks are distinct. In this paper, we propose a federated few-shot learning (FedFSL) framework to learn a few-shot classification model that can classify unseen data classes with only a few labeled samples. With the federated learning strategy, FedFSL can utilize many data sources while keeping data privacy and communication efficiency. There are two technical challenges: 1) directly using the existing federated learning approach may lead to misaligned decision boundaries produced by client models, and 2) constraining the decision boundaries to be similar over clients would overfit to training tasks but not adapt well to unseen tasks. To address these issues, we propose to regularize local updates by minimizing the divergence of client models. We also formulate the training in an adversarial fashion and optimize the client models to produce a discriminative feature space that can better represent unseen data samples. We demonstrate the intuitions and conduct experiments to show our approaches outperform baselines by more than 10% in learning vision tasks and 5% in language tasks.

  Federated Learning (FL) enables multiple clients to collaboratively learn a machine learning model without exchanging their own local data.

  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.

We show that our approach can reduce communication size by up to 92.4% compared with a baseline ResNet model using CIFAR-10 dataset.
