Real-world deployment of machine learning models requires the ability to continually learn from non-stationary data while preserving prior knowledge and user privacy. Therefore, storing knowledge acquired from past data in a resource- and privacy-friendly manner is a crucial consideration in determi…
Statistical heterogeneity of data present at client devices in a federated learning (FL) system renders the training of a global model in such systems difficult. Particularly challenging are the settings where due to communication resource constraints only a small fraction of clients can participate…
While federated learning (FL) systems often utilize quantization to battle communication and computational bottlenecks they have heretofore been limited to deploying fixed-precision quantization schemes. Meanwhile the concept of mixed-precision quantization (MPQ) where different layers of a deep lea…
Gradient inversion (GI) attacks present a threat to the privacy of clients in federated learning (FL) by aiming to enable reconstruction of the clients' data from communicated model updates. A number of such techniques attempts to accelerate data recovery by first reconstructing labels of the sample…
Heterogeneity of data distributed across clients limits the performance of global models trained through federated learning, especially in the settings with highly imbalanced class distributions of local datasets. In recent years, personalized federated learning (pFL) has emerged as a potential solu…
