ABSTRACT

Federated Learning enables visual models to be trained in a privacy-preserving way using real-world data from mobile devices. Given their distributed nature, the statistics of the data across these devices is likely to differ significantly. In this work, we look at the effect such non-identical data distributions has on visual classification via Federated Learning. We propose a way to synthesize datasets with a continuous range of identicalness and provide performance measures for the Federated Averaging algorithm. We show that performance degrades as distributions differ more, and propose a mitigation strategy via server momentum. Experiments on CIFAR-10 demonstrate improved classification performance over a range of non-identicalness, with classification accuracy improved from 30.1% to 76.9% in the most skewed settings.

研究の動機と目的

  • Motivate and quantify how non-identical data distributions across clients affect federated visual classification.
  • Develop a synthetic data generation method to span a continuous range of distribution identicalness using Dirichlet priors.
  • Benchmark FedAvg under varying non-identicalness and hyperparameters on CIFAR-10.
  • Propose and evaluate a mitigation via server-side momentum (FedAvgM) to improve convergence and accuracy.

提案手法

  • Define client data distributions as categorical with N classes drawn from Dirichlet(alpha * p).
  • Vary alpha to create a continuous spectrum from identical to highly non-identical client data.
  • Use CIFAR-10 with 100 clients, 500 images per client, and a CNN similar to McMahan et al., with fixed weight decay and no LR decay.
  • Run FedAvg across rounds with B=64, E in {1,5}, and C in {0.05,0.1,0.2,0.4}, over 10,000 rounds, and hyperparameter search over eta.
  • Explore server-side momentum: v <- beta v + Delta w; w <- w - v, i.e., FedAvgM with Nesterov momentum.]
  • research_questions: ["How does non-identical data distributions across clients impact FedAvg performance on visual classification tasks?","Can a Dirichlet-based synthesis of client data distributions capture a continuous range of identicalness and reveal hyperparameter sensitivities?","Does incorporating server momentum (FedAvgM) mitigate performance degradation caused by data non-identicalness?","What are the hyperparameter sensitivities (learning rate, momentum, local epochs, participation fraction) under varying data skew?","How close can FedAvgM approach centralized learning performance under non-IID conditions?"]
  • key_findings: ["Classification accuracy degrades as Dirichlet concentration alpha decreases (more non-identical data).","Increasing the reporting fraction C yields diminishing returns, especially under non-identical data, and synchronized updates (E) have mixed effects.","FedAvgM consistently improves test accuracy over FedAvg on non-identical data, often approaching centralized performance (e.g., near 86.0% in many cases).","Optimal effective server learning rate eta_eff = eta / (1 - beta) varies with C and E, with a wider viable window for larger C and tighter for small C.","Higher local epochs E increase update variance, necessitating lower eta_eff to maintain stability; FedAvgM helps stabilize under these conditions."]
