The proposed paper introduces ShapFed, a novel contribution assessment method for federated learning (FL) that uses Shapley values from cooperative game theory to provide a granular understanding of class-specific influences. The approach, called ShapFed-WA, outperforms conventional federated averaging in class-imbalanced scenarios and personalizes participant updates based on their contributions. Experiments on CIFAR-10, Chest X-Ray, and Fed-ISIC2019 datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of ShapFed in improving utility, efficiency, and fairness in FL systems.

Federated learning lets different people work together to train a big computer model without sharing all their data. But it’s hard to make sure everyone contributes equally and honestly. The proposed method, called ShapFed, helps by figuring out how much each person contributed to the final model. It works better than other methods in some situations and makes sure each person gets a different version of the model based on what they contributed.
