arXiv:2604.24012v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Federated learning enables a population of clients to collaboratively train machine learning models without exchanging their raw data, but standard algorithms such as FedAvg suffer from slow convergence and high communication and memory costs in heterogeneous, resource-constrained environments. We introduce FedSLoP, a federated optimization algorithm that combines stochastic low-rank subspace projections of gradients, thereby reducing the dimension of communicated and stored updates while preserving optimization progress. On the theoretical s
The increasing computational and memory demands of federated learning in resource-constrained environments necessitate more efficient algorithms like FedSLoP, which addresses critical bottlenecks for wider adoption.
This development improves the scalability and viability of federated learning, making distributed machine learning more accessible and performant, especially for sensitive data applications or edge computing.
Federated learning can now be implemented more efficiently in terms of communication and memory, potentially accelerating its deployment in diverse, heterogeneous environments.
