The proposed method improves knowledge distillation in Federated Learning (FL) by relying only on a single shared image between clients and the server. The authors introduce an adaptive dataset pruning algorithm that selects the most informative crops generated from this single image, leading to better performance compared to using multiple individual images. The approach is extended to train heterogeneous client architectures through non-uniform distillation scheduling and client-model mirroring on the server side.

This paper makes it possible for different devices to work together and learn from each other without sharing private data. It’s like a team effort, where everyone contributes their own insights and knowledge to improve the overall outcome. The researchers found a way to make this process more efficient by using just one image that all participants agree on, rather than many separate images. This makes it easier for devices with different abilities and capabilities to work together.
