Hierarchical Learning: A Hybrid of Federated Learning and Personalization Fine-Tuning by Li Shuyi, Zhang Bairong

“…Traditional FL methods, which allow multiple clients to collaboratively train a global model without sharing raw data, are hindered by issues such as non-independent and identically distributed (non-IID) data, communication overhead, and limited generalization across diverse client datasets. This study proposes a hierarchical model that mitigates these challenges by incorporating a global model, trained using the Federated Averaging (FedAvg) algorithm, and applying client-specific fine-tuning to improve local model performance. …”
