FL often suffers from significant performance degradation when clients have heterogeneous data distributions. We propose a novel method, Federated Stabilized Orthogonal Learning (FedSOL), which balances local and global learning.

• Abstract: Federated Learning (FL) aggregates locally trained models from individual clients to construct a global model. While FL enables learning a model with data privacy, it often suffers from significant performance degradation when clients have heterogeneous data distributions. This data heterogeneity causes the model to forget the global knowledge acquired from previously sampled clients after being trained on local datasets. Although the introduction of proximal objectives in local updates helps to preserve global knowledge, it can also hinder local learning by interfering with local objectives. To address this problem, we propose a novel method, Federated Stabilized Orthogonal Learning (FedSOL), which adopts an orthogonal learning strategy to balance the two conflicting objectives. FedSOL is designed to identify gradients of local objectives that are inherently orthogonal to directions affecting the proximal objective. Specifically, FedSOL targets parameter regions where learning on the local objective is minimally influenced by proximal weight perturbations. Our experiments demonstrate that FedSOL consistently achieves state-of-the-art performance across various scenarios.

  We propose a federated active learning paradigm to efficiently learn a global model with limited annotation budget. The main challenge faced by federated active learning is the mismatch between the active sampling goal of the global model on the server and that of the local clients. We propose Knowledge-Aware Federated Active Learning (KAFAL), which consists of Knowledge-Specialized Active Sampling (KSAS) and Knowledge-Compensatory Federated Update (KCFU)

  Federated learning (FL) allows multiple clients to collectively train a high-performance global model without sharing their private data. We propose a novel federated learning algorithm with local drift decoupling and correction (FedDC) Our FedDC only introduces lightweight modifications in the local training phase, in which each client utilizes an auxiliary local drift variable to track the gap between the local model parameter and the global model parameters. Experiment results and analysis demonstrate that FedDC yields expediting convergence and better performance on various image classification tasks.
