From Coordinate Matching to Structural Alignment: Rethinking Prototype Alignment in Heterogeneous Federated Learning

Xinghao Wu, Jianwei Niu, Guogang Zhu +3

Heterogeneous federated learning (HtFL) aims to enable collaboration among clients that differ in both data distributions and model architectures. Prototype-based methods, which co…

The Other Side of the Coin: Unveiling the Downsides of Model Aggregation in Federated Learning from a Layer-peeled Perspective

Guogang Zhu, Xuefeng Liu, Jianwei Niu +2

It is often observed that the aggregated model in FL underperforms on local data until after several rounds of local training. This temporary performance drop can potentially slow…
