Thinking Forward: Memory-Efficient Federated Finetuning of Language Models

NeurIPS 2024poster

Finetuning large language models (LLMs) in federated learning (FL) settings has become increasingly important as it allows resource-constrained devices to finetune a model using private data. However, finetuning LLMs using backpropagation requires excessive memory (especially from intermediate activ…

Flow: Per-instance Personalized Federated Learning

NeurIPS 2023poster

Federated learning (FL) suffers from data heterogeneity, where the diverse data distributions across clients make it challenging to train a single global model effectively. Existing personalization approaches aim to address the data heterogeneity issue by creating a personalized model for each clien…
