Numerous research studies in the field of federated learning (FL) have attempted to use personalization to address the heterogeneity among clients, one of FL's most crucial and challenging problems. However, existing works predominantly focus on tailoring models. Yet, due to the heterogeneity of clients, they may each require different choices of hyperparameters, which have not been studied so far. We pinpoint two challenges of personalized federated hyperparameter optimization (pFedHPO): handling the exponentially increased search space and characterizing each client without compromising its data privacy. To overcome them, we propose learning a \textsc{H}yper\textsc{P}arameter \textsc{N}etwork (HPN) fed with client encoding to decide personalized hyperparameters. The client encoding is calculated with a random projection-based procedure to protect each client's privacy. Besides, we design a novel mechanism to debias the low-fidelity function evaluation samples for learning HPN. We conduct extensive experiments on FL tasks from various domains, demonstrating the superiority of HPN.

Online federated learning (FL) enables geographically distributed devices to learn a global shared model from locally available streaming data. Most online FL literature considers a best-case scenario regarding the participating clients and the communication channels. However, these assumptions are often not met in real-world applications. Asynchronous settings can reflect a more realistic environment, such as heterogeneous client participation due to available computational power and battery constraints, as well as delays caused by communication channels or straggler devices. Further, in most applications, energy efficiency must be taken into consideration. Using the principles of partial-sharing-based communications, we propose a communication-efficient asynchronous online federated learning (PAO-Fed) strategy. By reducing the communication overhead of the participants, the proposed method renders participation in the learning task more accessible and efficient. In addition, the proposed aggregation mechanism accounts for random participation, handles delayed updates and mitigates their effect on accuracy. We prove the first and second-order convergence of the proposed PAO-Fed method and obtain an expression for its steady-state mean square deviation. Finally, we conduct comprehensive simulations to study the performance of the proposed method on both synthetic and real-life datasets. The simulations reveal that in asynchronous settings, the proposed PAO-Fed is able to achieve the same convergence properties as that of the online federated stochastic gradient while reducing the communication overhead by 98 percent.

Federated learning (FL) is a new distributed learning paradigm, with privacy, utility, and efficiency as its primary pillars. Existing research indicates that it is unlikely to simultaneously attain infinitesimal privacy leakage, utility loss, and efficiency. Therefore, how to find an optimal trade-off solution is the key consideration when designing the FL algorithm. One common way is to cast the trade-off problem as a multi-objective optimization problem, i.e., the goal is to minimize the utility loss and efficiency reduction while constraining the privacy leakage not exceeding a predefined value. However, existing multi-objective optimization frameworks are very time-consuming, and do not guarantee the existence of the Pareto frontier, this motivates us to seek a solution to transform the multi-objective problem into a single-objective problem because it is more efficient and easier to be solved. To this end, in this paper, we propose FedPAC, a unified framework that leverages PAC learning to quantify multiple objectives in terms of sample complexity, such quantification allows us to constrain the solution space of multiple objectives to a shared dimension, so that it can be solved with the help of a single-objective optimization algorithm. Specifically, we provide the results and detailed analyses of how to quantify the utility loss, privacy leakage, privacy-utility-efficiency trade-off, as well as the cost of the attacker from the PAC learning perspective.

The use of pretrained embeddings has become widespread in modern e-commerce machine learning (ML) systems. In practice, however, we have encountered several key issues when using pretrained embedding in a real-world production system, many of which cannot be fully explained by current knowledge. Unfortunately, we find that there is a lack of a thorough understanding of how pre-trained embeddings work, especially their intrinsic properties and interactions with downstream tasks. Consequently, it becomes challenging to make interactive and scalable decisions regarding the use of pre-trained embeddings in practice. Our investigation leads to two significant discoveries about using pretrained embeddings in e-commerce applications. Firstly, we find that the design of the pretraining and downstream models, particularly how they encode and decode information via embedding vectors, can have a profound impact. Secondly, we establish a principled perspective of pre-trained embeddings via the lens of kernel analysis, which can be used to evaluate their predictability, interactively and scalably. These findings help to address the practical challenges we faced and offer valuable guidance for successful adoption of pretrained embeddings in real-world production. Our conclusions are backed by solid theoretical reasoning, benchmark experiments, as well as online testings.

Federated Learning (FL) has emerged as a promising distributed learning paradigm with an added advantage of data privacy. With the growing interest in having collaboration among data owners, FL has gained significant attention of organizations. The idea of FL is to enable collaborating participants train machine learning (ML) models on decentralized data without breaching privacy. In simpler words, federated learning is the approach of ``bringing the model to the data, instead of bringing the data to the mode''. Federated learning, when applied to data which is partitioned vertically across participants, is able to build a complete ML model by combining local models trained only using the data with distinct features at the local sites. This architecture of FL is referred to as vertical federated learning (VFL), which differs from the conventional FL on horizontally partitioned data. As VFL is different from conventional FL, it comes with its own issues and challenges. In this paper, we present a structured literature review discussing the state-of-the-art approaches in VFL. Additionally, the literature review highlights the existing solutions to challenges in VFL and provides potential research directions in this domain.

The Shapley value (SV) is a fair and principled metric for contribution evaluation in cross-silo federated learning (cross-silo FL), wherein organizations, i.e., clients, collaboratively train prediction models with the coordination of a parameter server. However, existing SV calculation methods for FL assume that the server can access the raw FL models and public test data. This may not be a valid assumption in practice considering the emerging privacy attacks on FL models and the fact that test data might be clients' private assets. Hence, we investigate the problem of secure SV calculation for cross-silo FL. We first propose HESV, a one-server solution based solely on homomorphic encryption (HE) for privacy protection, which has limitations in efficiency. To overcome these limitations, we propose SecSV, an efficient two-server protocol with the following novel features. First, SecSV utilizes a hybrid privacy protection scheme to avoid ciphertext--ciphertext multiplications between test data and models, which are extremely expensive under HE. Second, an efficient secure matrix multiplication method is proposed for SecSV. Third, SecSV strategically identifies and skips some test samples without significantly affecting the evaluation accuracy. Our experiments demonstrate that SecSV is 7.2-36.6 times as fast as HESV, with a limited loss in the accuracy of calculated SVs.

Federated learning (FL) enables distributed clients to collaboratively train a machine learning model without sharing raw data with each other. However, it suffers the leakage of private information from uploading models. In addition, as the model size grows, the training latency increases due to limited transmission bandwidth and the model performance degrades while using differential privacy (DP) protection. In this paper, we propose a gradient sparsification empowered FL framework over wireless channels, in order to improve training efficiency without sacrificing convergence performance. Specifically, we first design a random sparsification algorithm to retain a fraction of the gradient elements in each client's local training, thereby mitigating the performance degradation induced by DP and and reducing the number of transmission parameters over wireless channels. Then, we analyze the convergence bound of the proposed algorithm, by modeling a non-convex FL problem. Next, we formulate a time-sequential stochastic optimization problem for minimizing the developed convergence bound, under the constraints of transmit power, the average transmitting delay, as well as the client's DP requirement. Utilizing the Lyapunov drift-plus-penalty framework, we develop an analytical solution to the optimization problem. Extensive experiments have been implemented on three real life datasets to demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed algorithm. We show that our proposed algorithms can fully exploit the interworking between communication and computation to outperform the baselines, i.e., random scheduling, round robin and delay-minimization algorithms.

Hierarchical Federated Learning (HFL) is a distributed machine learning paradigm tailored for multi-tiered computation architectures, which supports massive access of devices' models simultaneously. To enable efficient HFL, it is crucial to design suitable incentive mechanisms to ensure that devices actively participate in local training. However, there are few studies on incentive mechanism design for HFL. In this paper, we design two-level incentive mechanisms for the HFL with a two-tiered computing structure to encourage the participation of entities in each tier in the HFL training. In the lower-level game, we propose a coalition formation game to joint optimize the edge association and bandwidth allocation problem, and obtain efficient coalition partitions by the proposed preference rule, which can be proven to be stable by exact potential game. In the upper-level game, we design the Stackelberg game algorithm, which not only determines the optimal number of edge aggregations for edge servers to maximize their utility, but also optimize the unit reward provided for the edge aggregation performance to ensure the interests of cloud servers. Furthermore, numerical results indicate that the proposed algorithms can achieve better performance than the benchmark schemes.

Federated Learning (FL) is a decentralized machine-learning paradigm, in which a global server iteratively averages the model parameters of local users without accessing their data. User heterogeneity has imposed significant challenges to FL, which can incur drifted global models that are slow to converge. Knowledge Distillation has recently emerged to tackle this issue, by refining the server model using aggregated knowledge from heterogeneous users, other than directly averaging their model parameters. This approach, however, depends on a proxy dataset, making it impractical unless such a prerequisite is satisfied. Moreover, the ensemble knowledge is not fully utilized to guide local model learning, which may in turn affect the quality of the aggregated model. Inspired by the prior art, we propose a data-free knowledge distillation} approach to address heterogeneous FL, where the server learns a lightweight generator to ensemble user information in a data-free manner, which is then broadcasted to users, regulating local training using the learned knowledge as an inductive bias. Empirical studies powered by theoretical implications show that, our approach facilitates FL with better generalization performance using fewer communication rounds, compared with the state-of-the-art.

In recent years, mobile devices have gained increasingly development with stronger computation capability and larger storage. Some of the computation-intensive machine learning and deep learning tasks can now be run on mobile devices. To take advantage of the resources available on mobile devices and preserve users' privacy, the idea of mobile distributed machine learning is proposed. It uses local hardware resources and local data to solve machine learning sub-problems on mobile devices, and only uploads computation results instead of original data to contribute to the optimization of the global model. This architecture can not only relieve computation and storage burden on servers, but also protect the users' sensitive information. Another benefit is the bandwidth reduction, as various kinds of local data can now participate in the training process without being uploaded to the server. In this paper, we provide a comprehensive survey on recent studies of mobile distributed machine learning. We survey a number of widely-used mobile distributed machine learning methods. We also present an in-depth discussion on the challenges and future directions in this area. We believe that this survey can demonstrate a clear overview of mobile distributed machine learning and provide guidelines on applying mobile distributed machine learning to real applications.
