• Abstract: Federated learning (FL) is increasingly being recognized as a key approach to overcoming the data silos that so frequently obstruct the training and deployment of machine-learning models in clinical settings. This work contributes to a growing body of FL research specifically focused on clinical applications along three important directions. First, we expand the FLamby benchmark (du Terrail et al., 2022a) to include a comprehensive evaluation of personalized FL methods and demonstrate substantive performance improvements over the original results. Next, we advocate for a comprehensive checkpointing and evaluation framework for FL to reflect practical settings and provide multiple comparison baselines. To this end, an open-source library aimed at making FL experimentation simpler and more reproducible is released. Finally, we propose an important ablation of PerFCL (Zhang et al., 2022). This ablation results in a natural extension of FENDA (Kim et al., 2016) to the FL setting. Experiments conducted on the FLamby benchmark and GEMINI datasets (Verma et al., 2017) show that the proposed approach is robust to heterogeneous clinical data and often outperforms existing global and personalized FL techniques, including PerFCL.

  Federated Learning (FL) has gained significant popularity due to its effectiveness in training machine learning models across diverse sites without requiring direct data sharing. While various algorithms have shown that FL with local updates is a communication-efficient distributed learning framework, the generalization performance of FL with local updates has received comparatively less attention.
