A Survey of Personalized Federated Foundation Models for Privacy-Preserving Recommendation

IJCAI 2026

Integrating Foundation Models (FMs) into recommendation systems is an emerging and promising research direction. However, centralized paradigms face growing pressure from privacy concerns and strict regulatory requirements. Federated learning offers a viable solution that enables collaborative model

Breaking the Aggregation Bottleneck in Federated Recommendation: A Personalized Model Merging Approach

AAAI 2026technical

Federated recommendation (FR) facilitates collaborative training by aggregating local models from massive devices, enabling client-specific personalization while ensuring privacy. However, we empirically and theoretically demonstrate that server-side aggregation can undermine client-side personaliza

TransFR: Transferable Federated Recommendation with Adapter Tuning on Pre-trained Language Models

AAAI 2026technical

Federated recommendations (FRs), facilitating multiple local clients to collectively learn a global model without disclosing user private data, have emerged as a prevalent on-device service. In conventional FRs, a dominant paradigm is to utilize discrete identities to represent clients and items, wh

CoDTS: Enhancing Sparsely Supervised Collaborative Perception with a Dual Teacher-Student Framework

AAAI 2025technical

Current collaborative perception methods often rely on fully annotated datasets, which can be expensive to obtain in practical situations. To reduce annotation costs, some works adopt sparsely supervised learning techniques and generate pseudo labels for the missing instances. However, these methods…

Image Coding For Machines: an End-To-End Learned Approach

ICASSP 2021accepted

Over recent years, deep learning-based computer vision systems have been applied to images at an ever-increasing pace, oftentimes representing the only type of consumption for those images. Given the dramatic explosion in the number of images generated per day, a question arises: how much better wou…

Dirichlet Graph Variational Autoencoder

NeurIPS 2020poster

Graph Neural Networks (GNN) and Variational Autoencoders (VAEs) have been widely used in modeling and generating graphs with latent factors. However there is no clear explanation of what these latent factors are and why they perform well. In this work, we present Dirichlet Graph Variational Autoenco…

A k-nearest neighbor multilabel ranking algorithm with application to content-based image retrieval

ICASSP 2017accepted

Multilabel ranking is an important machine learning task with many applications, such as content-based image retrieval (CBIR). However, when the number of labels is large, traditional algorithms are either infeasible or show poor performance. In this paper, we propose a simple yet effective multilab…
