From Selection to Scheduling: Federated Geometry-Aware Correction Makes Exemplar Replay Work Better under Continual Dynamic Heterogeneity
Zhuang Qi, Ying-Peng Tang, Lei Meng +4
Exemplar replay has become an effective strategy for mitigating catastrophic forgetting in federated continual learning (FCL) by retaining representative samples from past tasks. E…
FedPDPO: Federated Personalized Direct Preference Optimization for Large Language Model Alignment
Kewen Zhu, Liping Yi, Zhiming Zhao +3
Aligning large language models (LLMs) with human preferences in federated learning (FL) is challenging due to decentralized, privacy-sensitive, and highly non-IID preference data.…
Class-wise Balancing Data Replay for Federated Class-Incremental Learning
Zhuang Qi, Ying-Peng Tang, Lei Meng +3
Federated Class Incremental Learning (FCIL) aims to collaboratively process continuously increasing incoming tasks across multiple clients. Among various approaches, data replay ha…
Global Prompt Refinement with Non-Interfering Attention Masking for One-Shot Federated Learning
Zhuang Qi, Pan Yu, Lei Meng +4
Federated Prompt Learning (FPL) enables communication-efficient adaptation by tuning lightweight prompts on top of frozen pre-trained models. Existing FPL methods typically rely on…
ProtoConNet: Prototypical Augmentation and Alignment for Open-Set Few-Shot Image Classification
Kexuan Shi, Zhuang Qi, Jingjing Zhu +4
Open-set few-shot image classification aims to train models using a small amount of labeled data, enabling them to achieve good generalization when confronted with unknown environm…
Semantic-Space-Intervened Diffusive Alignment for Visual Classification
Zixuan Li, Lei Meng, Guoqing Chao +5
Cross-modal alignment is an effective approach to improving visual classification. Existing studies typically enforce a one-step mapping that uses deep neural networks to project t…
