Rethinking Data Heterogeneity in Federated Learning: Introducing a New Notion and Standard Benchmarks
Mahdi Morafah, Saeed Vahidian, Chen Chen +2
Though successful, federated learning presents new challenges for machine learning, especially when the issue of data heterogeneity, also known as Non-IID data, arises. To cope wit…
Efficient Distribution Similarity Identification in Clustered Federated Learning via Principal Angles Between Client Data Subspaces
Saeed Vahidian, Mahdi Morafah, Weijia Wang +4
Clustered federated learning (FL) has been shown to produce promising results by grouping clients into clusters. This is especially effective in scenarios where separate groups of…
Addressing Action Oscillations through Learning Policy Inertia
Chen Chen, Hongyao Tang, Jianye Hao +2
Deep reinforcement learning (DRL) algorithms have been demonstrated to be effective in a wide range of challenging decision making and control tasks. However, these methods typical…
Foresee then Evaluate: Decomposing Value Estimation with Latent Future Prediction
Hongyao Tang, Jianye Hao, Guangyong Chen +6
Value function is the central notion of Reinforcement Learning (RL). Value estimation, especially with function approximation, can be challenging since it involves the stochasticit…
Towards Effective Context for Meta-Reinforcement Learning: an Approach based on Contrastive Learning
Haotian Fu, Hongyao Tang, Jianye Hao +4
Context, the embedding of previous collected trajectories, is a powerful construct for Meta-Reinforcement Learning (Meta-RL) algorithms. By conditioning on an effective context, Me…
