Communication complexity and privacy are the two key challenges in Federated Learning where the goal is to perform a distributed learning through a large volume of devices. In this work, we introduce FedSKETCH and FedSKETCHGATE algorithms to address both challenges in Federated learning jointly, where these algorithms are intended to be used for homogeneous and heterogeneous data distribution settings respectively. The key idea is to compress the accumulation of local gradients using count sketch, therefore, the server does not have access to the gradients themselves which provides privacy. Furthermore, due to the lower dimension of sketching used, our method exhibits communication-efficiency property as well. We provide, for the aforementioned schemes, sharp convergence guarantees. Finally, we back up our theory with various set of experiments.

Existing approaches to federated learning suffer from a communication bottleneck as well as convergence issues due to sparse client participation. In this paper we introduce a novel algorithm, called FetchSGD, to overcome these challenges. FetchSGD c
ompresses model updates using a Count Sketch, and then takes advantage of the mergeability of sketches to combine model updates from many workers. A key insight in the design of FetchSGD is that, because the Count Sketch is linear, momentum and error accumulation can both be carried out within the sketch. This allows the algorithm to move momentum and error accumulation from clients to the central aggregator, overcoming the challenges of sparse client participation while still achieving high compression rates and good convergence. We prove that FetchSGD has favorable convergence guarantees, and we demonstrate its empirical effectiveness by training two residual networks and a transformer model.
Federated learning can enable remote workers to collaboratively train a shared machine learning model while allowing training data to be kept locally. In the use case of wireless mobile devices, the communication overhead is a critical bottleneck due
to limited power and bandwidth. Prior work has utilized various data compression tools such as quantization and sparsification to reduce the overhead. In this paper, we propose a predictive coding based communication scheme for federated learning. The scheme has shared prediction functions among all devices and allows each worker to transmit a compressed residual vector derived from the reference. In each communication round, we select the predictor and quantizer based on the rate-distortion cost, and further reduce the redundancy with entropy coding. Extensive simulations reveal that the communication cost can be reduced up to 99% with even better learning performance when compared with other baseline methods.
Since 2014, the NIH funded iDASH (integrating Data for Analysis, Anonymization, SHaring) National Center for Biomedical Computing has hosted yearly competitions on the topic of private computing for genomic data. For one track of the 2020 iteration o
f this competition, participants were challenged to produce an approach to federated learning (FL) training of genomic cancer prediction models using differential privacy (DP), with submissions ranked according to held-out test accuracy for a given set of DP budgets. More precisely, in this track, we are tasked with training a supervised model for the prediction of breast cancer occurrence from genomic data split between two virtual centers while ensuring data privacy with respect to model transfer via DP. In this article, we present our 3rd place submission to this competition. During the competition, we encountered two main challenges discussed in this article: i) ensuring correctness of the privacy budget evaluation and ii) achieving an acceptable trade-off between prediction performance and privacy budget.
Federated learning is widely used to learn intelligent models from decentralized data. In federated learning, clients need to communicate their local model updates in each iteration of model learning. However, model updates are large in size if the m
odel contains numerous parameters, and there usually needs many rounds of communication until model converges. Thus, the communication cost in federated learning can be quite heavy. In this paper, we propose a communication efficient federated learning method based on knowledge distillation. Instead of directly communicating the large models between clients and server, we propose an adaptive mutual distillation framework to reciprocally learn a student and a teacher model on each client, where only the student model is shared by different clients and updated collaboratively to reduce the communication cost. Both the teacher and student on each client are learned on its local data and the knowledge distilled from each other, where their distillation intensities are controlled by their prediction quality. To further reduce the communication cost, we propose a dynamic gradient approximation method based on singular value decomposition to approximate the exchanged gradients with dynamic precision. Extensive experiments on benchmark datasets in different tasks show that our approach can effectively reduce the communication cost and achieve competitive results.
In this paper, we propose texttt{FedGLOMO}, the first (first-order) FL algorithm that achieves the optimal iteration complexity (i.e matching the known lower bound) on smooth non-convex objectives -- without using clients full gradient in each round.
Our key algorithmic idea that enables attaining this optimal complexity is applying judicious momentum terms that promote variance reduction in both the local updates at the clients, and the global update at the server. Our algorithm is also provably optimal even with compressed communication between the clients and the server, which is an important consideration in the practical deployment of FL algorithms. Our experiments illustrate the intrinsic variance reduction effect of texttt{FedGLOMO} which implicitly suppresses client-drift in heterogeneous data distribution settings and promotes communication-efficiency. As a prequel to texttt{FedGLOMO}, we propose texttt{FedLOMO} which applies momentum only in the local client updates. We establish that texttt{FedLOMO} enjoys improved convergence rates under common non-convex settings compared to prior work, and with fewer assumptions.
