Rethinking the Personalized Relaxed Initialization in the Federated Learning: Consistency and Generalization

Researchers propose FedInit, an efficient federated learning algorithm that uses personalized relaxed initialization at each local training stage to mitigate client-drift issues. This approach enhances model consistency and generalization by moving initial states away from the global state towards previous local states, reducing negative impacts on test error without additional costs. Developers should watch for further applications of this technique in advanced FL algorithms.
