A novel interpretability method called FreqX is proposed to overcome challenges in Personalized Federal Learning (PFL), which enables clients to train personalized models without sharing private datasets. PFL faces issues of non-independent and identically distributed data, heterogeneous devices, lack of fairness, and unclear contributions, necessitating the interpretation of deep learning models. Existing methods fail to provide low-cost, privacy-preserving, and detailed explanations. FreqX leverages Signal Processing and Information Theory to generate attributions that include both concept and attribution information, outperforming baselines in terms of speed and interpretability.

PFL allows clients to train personalized models without sharing private data. However, this process has some challenges like non-IID data, different devices, unfairness, and unclear contributions. To solve these problems, we need a way to understand how the model works. Current methods don’t provide clear explanations that are fast, private, and detailed. In this paper, we introduce FreqX, a new method for understanding deep learning models. Our results show that FreqX provides useful information about why the model made certain decisions.
