The proposed FedELC framework tackles the issue of complicated label noise in federated learning by introducing a two-stage approach. The first stage detects noisy clients with higher label noise rates, while the second stage corrects the labels of these clients’ data through an end-to-end label correction framework. This is achieved by learning possible ground-truth labels via back propagation. The framework demonstrates superior performance compared to its counterparts across different scenarios and improves the data quality of detected noisy clients’ local datasets.

Federated learning helps keep private information safe, but what happens when client data is noisy? Imagine trying to train a model with incorrect information! To solve this problem, researchers created FedELC, a two-part approach. First, it finds “noisy” clients with bad data. Then, it corrects those labels by guessing the right answers. This makes the whole process better and safer.
