Federated Learning (FL) is a distributed machine learning approach to learn models on decentralized heterogeneous data, without the need for clients to share their data. Many existing FL approaches assume that all clients have equal…
With the arising concerns of privacy within machine learning, federated learning (FL) was invented in 2017, in which the clients, such as mobile devices, train a model and send the update to the centralized server. Choosing clients randomly…
Federated Learning (FL) enables decentralized training of machine learning models on distributed data while preserving privacy. However, in real-world FL settings, client data is often non-identically distributed and imbalanced, resulting…
Federated Learning (FL) enables training ML models on edge clients without sharing data. However, the federated model's performance on local data varies, disincentivising the participation of clients who benefit little from FL. Fair FL…
Federated learning (FL) enables multiple data owners (a.k.a. FL clients) to collaboratively train machine learning models without disclosing sensitive private data. Existing FL research mostly focuses on the monopoly scenario in which a…
Federated learning (FL) algorithms commonly aim to maximize clients' accuracy by training a model on their collective data. However, in several FL applications, the model's decisions should meet a group fairness constraint to be independent…
Achieving fairness across diverse clients in Federated Learning (FL) remains a significant challenge due to the heterogeneity of the data and the inaccessibility of sensitive attributes from clients' private datasets. This study addresses…
In the federated learning setting, multiple clients jointly train a model under the coordination of the central server, while the training data is kept on the client to ensure privacy. Normally, inconsistent distribution of data across…
In current deep learning paradigms, local training or the Standalone framework tends to result in overfitting and thus poor generalizability. This problem can be addressed by Distributed or Federated Learning (FL) that leverages a parameter…
