• Abstract summary: Domain Generalization (DG) aims to train models that can effectively generalize to unseen domains. In Federated Learning (FL), where clients collaboratively train a model without directly sharing their data, most existing DG algorithms are not directly applicable to the FL setting. We propose FedCCRL, a lightweight federated domain generalization method that significantly improves the model's generalization ability while preserving privacy.

• Abstract: Domain Generalization (DG) aims to train models that can effectively generalize to unseen domains. However, in the context of Federated Learning (FL), where clients collaboratively train a model without directly sharing their data, most existing DG algorithms are not directly applicable to the FL setting due to privacy constraints, as well as the limited data quantity and domain diversity at each client. To tackle these challenges, we propose FedCCRL, a lightweight federated domain generalization method that significantly improves the model's generalization ability while preserving privacy and ensuring computational and communication efficiency. Specifically, FedCCRL comprises two principal modules: the first is a cross-client feature extension module, which increases local domain diversity via cross-client domain transfer and domain-invariant feature perturbation; the second is a representation and prediction dual-stage alignment module, which enables the model to effectively capture domain-invariant features. Extensive experimental results demonstrate that FedCCRL achieves the state-of-the-art performance on the PACS, OfficeHome and miniDomainNet datasets across FL settings of varying numbers of clients.

  Federated Learning (FL) offers a decentralized paradigm for collaborative model training without direct data sharing. It poses unique challenges for Domain Generalization (DG), including strict privacy constraints, non-i.i.d. local data, and limited domain diversity. We introduce FedAlign, a lightweight, privacy-preserving framework designed to enhance DG in federated settings.

  Federated Domain-specific Instruction Tuning (FedDIT) utilizes limited cross-client private data together with various strategies of instruction augmentation.

For client-side computational efficiency and system scalability, FedDCA$*$, the variant of FedDCA, utilizes heterogeneous encoders with server-side feature alignment.

  In real-world applications, local clients often operate within their limited domains, leading to a domain shift' across clients. We introduce the concept of federated feature diversification, which helps local models learn client-invariant representations while preserving privacy. Our resultant global model shows robust performance on unseen test domain data.

  Domain shift is a formidable issue in Machine Learning that causes a model to suffer from performance degradation when tested on unseen domains. FedDG attempts to train a global model using collaborative clients in a privacy-preserving manner that can generalize well to unseen clients possibly with domain shift. Here, we introduce a novel architectural method for FedDG, namely gPerXAN, which relies on a normalization scheme working with a guiding regularizer.
