Numerical simulations show that FedGG has a significant improvement on model convergence accuracies and speeds.

• Abstract: Federated learning protects data privacy and security by exchanging models instead of data. However, unbalanced data distributions among participating clients compromise the accuracy and convergence speed of federated learning algorithms. To alleviate this problem, unlike previous studies that limit the distance of updates for local models, we propose global-update-guided federated learning (FedGG), which introduces a model-cosine loss into local objective functions, so that local models can fit local data distributions under the guidance of update directions of global models. Furthermore, considering that the update direction of a global model is informative in the early stage of training, we propose adaptive loss weights based on the update distances of local models. Numerical simulations show that, compared with other advanced algorithms, FedGG has a significant improvement on model convergence accuracies and speeds. Additionally, compared with traditional fixed loss weights, adaptive loss weights enable our algorithm to be more stable and easier to implement in practice.

  Federated learning enables joint training of machine learning models from distributed clients without sharing their local data. One key challenge in federated learning is to handle non-identically distributed data across the clients. We propose a novel federated learning framework with projected trajectory regularization (FedPTR) for tackling the data issue.

  We focus on Federated learning (FL) via edge-the-air computation (AirComp) We describe the convergence of AirComp-based FedAvg (AirFedAvg) algorithms under both convex and non- convex settings. For different types of local updates that can be transmitted by edge devices (i.e., model, gradient, model difference), we reveal that transmitting in AirFedAvg may cause an aggregation error. In addition, we consider more practical signal processing schemes to improve the communication efficiency and extend the convergence analysis to different forms of model aggregation error caused by these signal processing schemes.

  Federated Learning (FL) has become a popular distributed learning paradigm that involves multiple clients training a global model collaboratively. The data samples usually follow a long-tailed distribution in the real world, and FL on the decentralized and long-tailed data yields a poorly-behaved global model. In this work, we integrate the local real data with the global gradient prototypes to form the local balanced datasets.
