FedControl: When Control Theory Meets Federated Learning

Machine Learning 2022-05-31 v1

Abstract

To date, the most popular federated learning algorithms use coordinate-wise averaging of the model parameters. We depart from this approach by differentiating client contributions according to the performance of local learning and its evolution. The technique is inspired from control theory and its classification performance is evaluated extensively in IID framework and compared with FedAvg.
