Introducing Coalitions to Improve the Performance of Federated Learning Consensus-Based Algorithms
摘要
This paper introduces ACoaL (Asynchronous Consensus-based with coalitions Learning), a novel Federated Learning algorithm that enhances the learning process by forming coalitions within a MAS. ACoaL builds upon Co-Learning, focusing on intra-coalition communication to strengthen learning. The algorithm leverages SPADE framework for agent communication and coordination. The paper presents a case study on fruit classification to demonstrate ACoaL’s effectiveness, highlighting its potential for distributed learning tasks.
