This paper proposes a federated learning framework designed to achieve \textit{relative fairness} for clients. Traditional federated learning frameworks typically ensure absolute fairness by guaranteeing minimum performance across all…
We study a data marketplace where a broker intermediates between buyers, who seek to estimate the mean \(\mu\) of an unknown normal distribution \(\Ncal(\mu, \sigma^2)\), and contributors, who can collect data from this distribution at a…
The standard client selection algorithms for Federated Learning (FL) are often unbiased and involve uniform random sampling of clients. This has been proven sub-optimal for fast convergence under practical settings characterized by…
Federated learning is a privacy-focused approach towards machine learning where models are trained on client devices with locally available data and aggregated at a central server. However, the dependence on a single central server is…
