Основные понятия
Federated Distillation (FD) integrates knowledge distillation into federated learning to enable more flexible knowledge transfer between clients and the server, surpassing the mere sharing of model parameters. FD mitigates the communication costs associated with training large-scale models and eliminates the need for identical model architectures across clients and the server.
Аннотация
The content provides a comprehensive overview of Federated Distillation (FD), which combines federated learning and knowledge distillation to address the limitations of traditional federated learning.
Key highlights:
Federated learning enables collaborative model training without sharing private training data, but faces challenges like high communication costs and the need for uniform model architectures.
Knowledge distillation allows transferring knowledge from a complex teacher model to a simpler student model, improving efficiency and performance.
FD integrates knowledge distillation into federated learning, enabling more flexible knowledge transfer between clients and the server.
FD eliminates the need for identical model architectures across clients and the server, mitigating communication costs associated with training large-scale models.
The paper delves into the fundamental principles of FD, delineates FD approaches for tackling various challenges, and provides insights into diverse FD applications.
FD addresses heterogeneity challenges related to data, systems, and models, as well as issues like communication costs, privacy, and client drift.
FD leverages public datasets, synthetic data, global and local knowledge alignment, and hybrid strategies to mitigate the impact of data heterogeneity.
System heterogeneity is addressed by accommodating diverse client device capabilities and handling device failures.
Model heterogeneity is tackled by enabling clients to use customized model architectures and personalized local models.
