This research paper proposes two novel sampling strategies for spectral model sharding in heterogeneous client federated learning settings. Specifically, the authors develop unbiased estimators and squared approximation error minimizers to partition model parameters into low-rank matrices, enabling more efficient on-device training. The proposed methods can be integrated into the federated learning loop, offering practical benefits during local training. Experimental results demonstrate improved performance on various benchmark datasets.

This paper solves a big problem in machine learning called heterogeneous clients. When lots of devices work together to train a model, it’s hard for them to agree on what the model should look like. One way to make this easier is by splitting the model into smaller pieces based on how important each piece is. The researchers came up with two new ways to do this and tested them on different datasets. Their methods can help devices learn more efficiently and accurately, which is important for lots of applications.
