• Abstract: Global models are trained to be as generalizable as possible, with user invariance considered desirable since the models are shared across multitudes of users. As such, these models are often unable to produce personalized responses for individual users, based on their data. Contrary to widely-used personalization techniques based on few-shot learning, we propose UserIdentifier, a novel scheme for training a single shared model for all users. Our approach produces personalized responses by adding fixed, non-trainable user identifiers to the input data. We empirically demonstrate that this proposed method outperforms the prefix-tuning based state-of-the-art approach by up to 13%, on a suite of sentiment analysis datasets. We also show that, unlike prior work, this method needs neither any additional model parameters nor any extra rounds of few-shot fine-tuning.

  This paper presents a new approach to federated learning that allows selecting a model from global and personalized ones. It is achieved through a careful modeling of predictive uncertainties that helps to detect local and global in- and out-of-distribution data. The comprehensive experimental evaluation on the popular real-world image datasets shows the superior performance of the model in the presence of out-of-distribution data.

  We propose a method that employs the modelling of user stereotypes to automate part of the persona creation process. Results show that manual techniques differ between human persona designers leading to different results. The proposed algorithm provides similar results based on parameter input, but was more rigorous and will find optimal clusters.

  Personalization in federated learning can improve the accuracy of a model for a user by trading off the model's bias. We formalize the personalized collaborative learning problem as optimization of a user's objective. We explore conditions under which we can optimally trade-off their bias for a reduction in variance.
