The proposed dual-segment clustering (DSC) strategy tackles communication and data heterogeneity challenges in federated learning, enhancing model aggregation in diverse environments. By defining novel SNR and information quantity matrices, the algorithm iteratively refines client clustering based on these metrics, improving wireless FL convergence and accuracy. This approach outperforms classical methods, demonstrating enhanced reliability and accuracy.

Federated learning is a way for many devices to learn from each other without sharing their data. Sometimes this data isn’t uniform, which can cause problems. The researchers found that communication quality also plays a role in how well the models work together. To fix these issues, they created a new method called dual-segment clustering (DSC). This helps group similar devices together and improves how well the models share information. The results show that DSC works better than other methods in different scenarios.
