Agnostic Federated Learning

Agnostic federated learning aims to overcome limitations of traditional federated learning by enabling collaborative model training across diverse devices and data types without requiring uniformity in model architectures or tasks. Current research focuses on developing model-agnostic algorithms, such as adaptations of AdaBoost, and exploring techniques like model compression and self-supervised learning to enhance privacy and efficiency, particularly within resource-constrained environments. This approach is significant because it expands the applicability of federated learning beyond deep neural networks to a wider range of machine learning models and datasets, facilitating broader collaboration and data utilization while preserving privacy.
