Mitigating Catastrophic Forgetting with Adaptive Transformer Block Expansion in Federated Fine-Tuning
Yujia Huo, Jianchun Liu, Hongli Xu +3
Federated fine-tuning (FedFT) of large language models (LLMs) has emerged as a promising solution for adapting models to distributed data environments while ensuring data privacy.…
Efficient Federated Fine-Tuning of Large Language Models with Layer Dropout
Shilong Wang, Jianchun Liu, Hongli Xu +2
Fine-tuning plays a crucial role in enabling pre-trained LLMs to evolve from general language comprehension to task-specific expertise. To preserve user data privacy, federated fin…
A Robust Federated Learning Framework for Undependable Devices at Scale
Shilong Wang, Jianchun Liu, Hongli Xu +4
In a federated learning (FL) system, many devices, such as smartphones, are often undependable (e.g., frequently disconnected from WiFi) during training. Existing FL frameworks alw…
Enhancing Federated Graph Learning via Adaptive Fusion of Structural and Node Characteristics
Xianjun Gao, Jianchun Liu, Hongli Xu +2
Federated Graph Learning (FGL) has demonstrated the advantage of training a global Graph Neural Network (GNN) model across distributed clients using their local graph data. Unlike…
