• Abstract: Federated learning is a new framework that protects data privacy and allows multiple devices to cooperate in training machine learning models. Previous studies have proposed multiple approaches to eliminate the challenges posed by non-iid data and inter-domain heterogeneity issues. However, they ignore the \textbf{spatio-temporal} heterogeneity formed by different data distributions of increasing task data in the intra-domain. Moreover, the global data is generally a long-tailed distribution rather than assuming the global data is balanced in practical applications. To tackle the \textbf{spatio-temporal} dilemma, we propose a novel setting named \textbf{Spatio-Temporal Heterogeneity} Federated Learning (STHFL). Specially, the Global-Local Dynamic Prototype (GLDP) framework is designed for STHFL. In GLDP, the model in each client contains personalized layers which can dynamically adapt to different data distributions. For long-tailed data distribution, global prototypes are served as complementary knowledge for the training on classes with few samples in clients without leaking privacy. As tasks increase in clients, the knowledge of local prototypes generated in previous tasks guides for training in the current task to solve catastrophic forgetting. Meanwhile, the global-local prototypes are updated through the moving average method after training local prototypes in clients. Finally, we evaluate the effectiveness of GLDP, which achieves remarkable results compared to state-of-the-art methods in STHFL scenarios.

  Federated learning offers a paradigm to the challenge of preserving privacy in distributed machine learning. Traditional approach fails to address the phenomenon of class-wise bias in global long-tailed data. New method FedLF introduces three modifications in the local training phase: adaptive logit adjustment, continuous class centred optimization, and feature decorrelation.

  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.

  Federated Learning (FL) enables multiple clients to collaboratively learn in a distributed way, allowing for privacy protection. We find that the difference in logits between the local and global models increases as the model is continuously updated. We propose a new algorithm, named FedCSD, a Class prototype Similarity Distillation in a federated framework to align the local and global models.

  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.

  FedHKD (Federated Hyper-Knowledge Distillation) is a novel FL algorithm in which clients rely on knowledge distillation to train local models. Unlike other KD-based pFL methods, FedHKD does not rely on a public dataset nor it deploys a generative model at the server. We conduct extensive experiments on visual datasets in a variety of scenarios, demonstrating that FedHKD provides significant improvement in both personalized as well as global model performance.

  Federated learning allows a large number of clients with heterogeneous data to coordinate learning of a unified global model. Standard FL algorithms involve averaging of model parameters or gradient updates to approximate the global model at the server. We propose a gradient masked averaging approach for FL as an alternative to the standard averaging of client updates.

  We propose a novel federated learning framework and algorithm for learning a shared data representation across clients and unique local heads for each client. Our algorithm harnesses the distributed computational power across clients to perform many local-updates with respect to the low-dimensional local parameters for every update of the representation. This result is of interest beyond federated learning to a broad class of problems in which we aim to learn a shared low-dimensional representation among data distributions.

  Federated learning algorithms aim to leverage distributed and diverse data stored at users' devices to learn a global phenomena. In the cases where the participants' data are strongly skewed (i.e., non-IID), the local models can overfit local data, leading to low performing global model. We propose a hierarchical learning system that performs Federated Gradient Descent on the user-edge layer and Federated Averaging on the edge-cloud layer.
