Federated learning aims to collaboratively train a strong global model by accessing users locally trained models but not their own data. A crucial step is therefore to aggregate local models into a global model, which has been shown challenging when users have non-i.i.d. data. In this paper, we propose a novel aggregation algorithm named FedBE, which takes a Bayesian inference perspective by sampling higher-quality global models and combining them via Bayesian model Ensemble, leading to much robust aggregation. We show that an effective model distribution can be constructed by simply fitting a Gaussian or Dirichlet distribution to the local models. Our empirical studies validate FedBEs superior performance, especially when users data are not i.i.d. and when the neural networks go deeper. Moreover, FedBE is compatible with recent efforts in regularizing users model training, making it an easily applicable module: you only need to replace the aggregation method but leave other parts of your federated learning algorithm intact.

Federated learning (FL) is a privacy-preserving machine learning paradigm that enables collaborative training among geographically distributed and heterogeneous users without gathering their data. Extending FL beyond the conventional supervised learn
ing paradigm, federated Reinforcement Learning (RL) was proposed to handle sequential decision-making problems for various privacy-sensitive applications such as autonomous driving. However, the existing federated RL algorithms directly combine model-free RL with FL, and thus generally have high sample complexity and lack theoretical guarantees. To address the above challenges, we propose a new federated RL algorithm that incorporates model-based RL and ensemble knowledge distillation into FL. Specifically, we utilise FL and knowledge distillation to create an ensemble of dynamics models from clients, and then train the policy by solely using the ensemble model without interacting with the real environment. Furthermore, we theoretically prove that the monotonic improvement of the proposed algorithm is guaranteed. Extensive experimental results demonstrate that our algorithm obtains significantly higher sample efficiency compared to federated model-free RL algorithms in the challenging continuous control benchmark environments. The results also show the impact of non-IID client data and local update steps on the performance of federated RL, validating the insights obtained from our theoretical analysis.
Federated learning is a new learning paradigm that decouples data collection and model training via multi-party computation and model aggregation. As a flexible learning setting, federated learning has the potential to integrate with other learning f
rameworks. We conduct a focused survey of federated learning in conjunction with other learning algorithms. Specifically, we explore various learning algorithms to improve the vanilla federated averaging algorithm and review model fusion methods such as adaptive aggregation, regularization, clustered methods, and Bayesian methods. Following the emerging trends, we also discuss federated learning in the intersection with other learning paradigms, termed as federated x learning, where x includes multitask learning, meta-learning, transfer learning, unsupervised learning, and reinforcement learning. This survey reviews the state of the art, challenges, and future directions.
Federated learning is a method of training a global model from decentralized data distributed across client devices. Here, model parameters are computed locally by each client device and exchanged with a central server, which aggregates the local mod
els for a global view, without requiring sharing of training data. The convergence performance of federated learning is severely impacted in heterogeneous computing platforms such as those at the wireless edge, where straggling computations and communication links can significantly limit timely model parameter updates. This paper develops a novel coded computing technique for federated learning to mitigate the impact of stragglers. In the proposed Coded Federated Learning (CFL) scheme, each client device privately generates parity training data and shares it with the central server only once at the start of the training phase. The central server can then preemptively perform redundant gradient computations on the composite parity data to compensate for the erased or delayed parameter updates. Our results show that CFL allows the global model to converge nearly four times faster when compared to an uncoded approach
Federated learning learns from scattered data by fusing collaborative models from local nodes. However, due to chaotic information distribution, the model fusion may suffer from structural misalignment with regard to unmatched parameters. In this wor
k, we propose a novel federated learning framework to resolve this issue by establishing a firm structure-information alignment across collaborative models. Specifically, we design a feature-oriented regulation method ({$Psi$-Net}) to ensure explicit feature information allocation in different neural network structures. Applying this regulating method to collaborative models, matchable structures with similar feature information can be initialized at the very early training stage. During the federated learning process under either IID or non-IID scenarios, dedicated collaboration schemes further guarantee ordered information distribution with definite structure matching, so as the comprehensive model alignment. Eventually, this framework effectively enhances the federated learning applicability to extensive heterogeneous settings, while providing excellent convergence speed, accuracy, and computation/communication efficiency.
We consider the problem of reinforcing federated learning with formal privacy guarantees. We propose to employ Bayesian differential privacy, a relaxation of differential privacy for similarly distributed data, to provide sharper privacy loss bounds.
We adapt the Bayesian privacy accounting method to the federated setting and suggest multiple improvements for more efficient privacy budgeting at different levels. Our experiments show significant advantage over the state-of-the-art differential privacy bounds for federated learning on image classification tasks, including a medical application, bringing the privacy budget below 1 at the client level, and below 0.1 at the instance level. Lower amounts of noise also benefit the model accuracy and reduce the number of communication rounds.
