FedDES通过动态选择同伴模型,实现联邦学习中每个样本的个性化预测。

FedDES: Graph-Based Dynamic Ensemble Selection for Personalized Federated Learning

  • 用图神经网络动态筛选并加权同伴模型,形成最优组合。
  • 在CIFAR-10和真实医疗数据上,相比现有方法提升准确率1.5%以上。
  • 适合需要应对数据异质性、防止负迁移的个性化联邦学习场景。

联邦学习中的统计异质性常导致负迁移,单一全局模型难以适应多样客户端分布。个性化联邦学习(pFL)旨在为各客户端定制模型,但多数现有方法对同伴贡献均匀融合,忽视了不同同伴在不同样本上的有效性差异。此外,实例级个性化潜力尚未被充分探索。本文提出FedDES(联邦动态集成选择),一种去中心化的pFL框架,通过图神经网络元学习器建模样本与候选分类器间的交互,在测试时动态选择并加权最适配的同伴模型,构建高效集成,抑制无关或有害模型的影响。在CIFAR-10和真实医疗ICU数据集上的实验表明,该方法在非独立同分布环境下优于当前最优pFL基线,有效缓解负迁移问题。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Statistical heterogeneity in Federated Learning (FL) often leads to negative transfer, where a single global model fails to serve diverse client distributions. Personalized federated learning (pFL) aims to address this by tailoring models to individual clients. However, under most existing pFL approaches, clients integrate peer client contributions uniformly, which ignores the reality that not all peers are likely to be equally beneficial. Additionally, the potential for personalization at the instance level remains largely unexplored, even though the reliability of different peer models often varies across individual samples within the same client. We introduce FedDES (Federated Dynamic Ensemble Selection), a decentralized pFL framework that achieves instance-level personalization through dynamic ensemble selection. Central to our approach is a Graph Neural Network (GNN) meta-learner trained on a heterogeneous graph modeling interactions between data samples and candidate classifiers. For each test query, the GNN dynamically selects and weights peer client models, forming an ensemble of the most competent classifiers while effectively suppressing contributions from those that are irrelevant or potentially harmful for performance. Experiments on CIFAR-10 and real-world ICU healthcare data demonstrate that FedDES outperforms state-of-the-art pFL baselines in non-IID settings, offering robust protection against negative transfer.
