Adaptive Local Training in Federated Learning
Donald Shenaj
Eugene Belilovsky
Pietro Zanuttigh
Federated Learning is a machine learning paradigm where multiple clients collaboratively train a global model by exchanging their locally tr… (voir plus)ained model weights instead of raw data. In the standard setting, every client trains the local model for the same number of epochs. We introduce ALT (Adaptive Local Training), a simple yet effective feedback mechanism that could be introduced at the client side to limit unnecessary and degrading computations. ALT dynamically adjusts the number of training epochs for each client based on the similarity between their local representations and the global one, ensuring that well-aligned clients can train longer without experiencing client drift. We evaluated ALT on federated partitions of the CIFAR-10 and TinyImageNet datasets, demonstrating its effectiveness in improving model convergence and stability.
