Deep neural networks have shown the ability to extract universal feature representations from data such as images and text that have been useful for a variety of learning tasks. However, the fruits of representation learning have yet to be fully-realized in federated settings. Although data in federated settings is often non-i.i.d. across clients, the success of centralized deep learning suggests that data often shares a global feature representation, while the statistical heterogeneity across clients or tasks is concentrated in the labels. Based on this intuition, 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. We prove that this method obtains linear convergence to the ground-truth representation with near-optimal sample complexity in a linear setting, demonstrating that it can efficiently reduce the problem dimension for each client. 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, for example in meta-learning and multi-task learning. Further, extensive experimental results show the empirical improvement of our method over alternative personalized federated learning approaches in federated environments with heterogeneous data.

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.
As data is generated and stored almost everywhere, learning a model from a data-decentralized setting is a task of interest for many AI-driven service providers. Although federated learning is settled down as the main solution in such situations, the re still exists room for improvement in terms of personalization. Training federated learning systems usually focuses on optimizing a global model that is identically deployed to all client devices. However, a single global model is not sufficient for each client to be personalized on their performance as local data assumes to be not identically distributed across clients. We propose a method to address this situation through the lens of ensemble learning based on the construction of a low-loss subspace continuum that generates a high-accuracy ensemble of two endpoints (i.e. global model and local model). We demonstrate that our method achieves consistent gains both in personalized and unseen client evaluation settings through extensive experiments on several standard benchmark datasets.
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.
Localization and tracking of objects using data-driven methods is a popular topic due to the complexity in characterizing the physics of wireless channel propagation models. In these modeling approaches, data needs to be gathered to accurately train models, at the same time that users privacy is maintained. An appealing scheme to cooperatively achieve these goals is known as Federated Learning (FL). A challenge in FL schemes is the presence of non-independent and identically distributed (non-IID) data, caused by unevenly exploration of different areas. In this paper, we consider the use of recent FL schemes to train a set of personalized models that are then optimally fused through Bayesian rules, which makes it appropriate in the context of indoor localization.
Personalized federated learning (FL) aims to train model(s) that can perform well for individual clients that are highly data and system heterogeneous. Most work in personalized FL, however, assumes using the same model architecture at all clients an d increases the communication cost by sending/receiving models. This may not be feasible for realistic scenarios of FL. In practice, clients have highly heterogeneous system-capabilities and limited communication resources. In our work, we propose a personalized FL framework, PerFed-CKT, where clients can use heterogeneous model architectures and do not directly communicate their model parameters. PerFed-CKT uses clustered co-distillation, where clients use logits to transfer their knowledge to other clients that have similar data-distributions. We theoretically show the convergence and generalization properties of PerFed-CKT and empirically show that PerFed-CKT achieves high test accuracy with several orders of magnitude lower communication cost compared to the state-of-the-art personalized FL schemes.
