Federated learning (FL) is an emerging distributed machine learning paradigm that avoids data sharing among training nodes so as to protect data privacy. Under coordination of the FL server, each client conducts model training using its own computing resource and private data set. The global model can be created by aggregating the training results of clients. To cope with highly non-IID data distributions, personalized federated learning (PFL) has been proposed to improve overall performance by allowing each client to learn a personalized model. However, one major drawback of a personalized model is the loss of generalization. To achieve model personalization while maintaining generalization, in this paper, we propose a new approach, named PFL-MoE, which mixes outputs of the personalized model and global model via the MoE architecture. PFL-MoE is a generic approach and can be instantiated by integrating existing PFL algorithms. Particularly, we propose the PFL-MF algorithm which is an instance of PFL-MoE based on the freeze-base PFL algorithm. We further improve PFL-MF by enhancing the decision-making ability of MoE gating network and propose a variant algorithm PFL-MFE. We demonstrate the effectiveness of PFL-MoE by training the LeNet-5 and VGG-16 models on the Fashion-MNIST and CIFAR-10 datasets with non-IID partitions.

While federated learning traditionally aims to train a single global model across decentralized local datasets, one model may not always be ideal for all participating clients. Here we propose an alternative, where each client only federates with oth er relevant clients to obtain a stronger model per client-specific objectives. To achieve this personalization, rather than computing a single model average with constant weights for the entire federation as in traditional FL, we efficiently calculate optimal weighted model combinations for each client, based on figuring out how much a client can benefit from anothers model. We do not assume knowledge of any underlying data distributions or client similarities, and allow each client to optimize for arbitrary target distributions of interest, enabling greater flexibility for personalization. We evaluate and characterize our method on a variety of federated settings, datasets, and degrees of local data heterogeneity. Our method outperforms existing alternatives, while also enabling new features for personalized FL such as transfer outside of local data distributions.
The traditional approach in FL tries to learn a single global model collaboratively with the help of many clients under the orchestration of a central server. However, learning a single global model might not work well for all clients participating i n the FL under data heterogeneity. Therefore, the personalization of the global model becomes crucial in handling the challenges that arise with statistical heterogeneity and the non-IID distribution of data. Unlike prior works, in this work we propose a new approach for obtaining a personalized model from a client-level objective. This further motivates all clients to participate in federation even under statistical heterogeneity in order to improve their performance, instead of merely being a source of data and model training for the central server. To realize this personalization, we leverage finding a small subnetwork for each client by applying hybrid pruning (combination of structured and unstructured pruning), and unstructured pruning. Through a range of experiments on different benchmarks, we observed that the clients with similar data (labels) share similar personal parameters. By finding a subnetwork for each client ...
As artificial intelligence (AI)-empowered applications become widespread, there is growing awareness and concern for user privacy and data confidentiality. This has contributed to the popularity of federated learning (FL). FL applications often face data distribution and device capability heterogeneity across data owners. This has stimulated the rapid development of Personalized FL (PFL). In this paper, we complement existing surveys, which largely focus on the methods and applications of FL, with a review of recent advances in PFL. We discuss hurdles to PFL under the current FL settings, and present a unique taxonomy dividing PFL techniques into data-based and model-based approaches. We highlight their key ideas, and envision promising future trajectories of research towards new PFL architectural design, realistic PFL benchmarking, and trustworthy PFL approaches.
Federated learning is promising for its ability to collaboratively train models with multiple clients without accessing their data, but vulnerable when clients data distributions diverge from each other. This divergence further leads to a dilemma: Sh ould we prioritize the learned models generic performance (for future use at the server) or its personalized performance (for each client)? These two, seemingly competing goals have divided the community to focus on one or the other, yet in this paper we show that it is possible to approach both at the same time. Concretely, we propose a novel federated learning framework that explicitly decouples a models dual duties with two prediction tasks. On the one hand, we introduce a family of losses that are robust to non-identical class distributions, enabling clients to train a generic predictor with a consistent objective across them. On the other hand, we formulate the personalized predictor as a lightweight adaptive module that is learned to minimize each clients empirical risk on top of the generic predictor. With this two-loss, two-predictor framework which we name Federated Robust Decoupling Fed-RoD, the learned model can simultaneously achieve state-of-the-art generic and personalized performance, essentially bridging the two tasks.
In this paper, we propose a novel mixture of expert architecture for learning polyhedral classifiers. We learn the parameters of the classifierusing an expectation maximization algorithm. Wederive the generalization bounds of the proposedapproach. Th rough an extensive simulation study, we show that the proposed method performs comparably to other state-of-the-art approaches.
