Introduction to Federated Learning
摘要
Federated learning (FL) is a decentralized machine learning (ML) paradigm designed to train models collaboratively across a large number of distributed devices or organizations while keeping the raw data localized [23]. Instead of pooling data into a central server, clients compute model updates locally and only share parameters or gradients with a coordinating server [6]. This framework preserves data privacy, reduces communication overhead, and allows leveraging heterogeneous and sensitive datasets that are otherwise difficult to aggregate.
