arXiv:2606.20382v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: MultiModal Federated Graph Learning (MM-FGL) offers a natural collaborative training paradigm, but its practical deployment is challenged by two granularities of modality imbalance. Client-level imbalance occurs when certain clients lack entire modalities, while node-level imbalance occurs when individual nodes exhibit missing visual or textual attributes. While several relevant studies exist, our investigation reveals that they predominantly target graph-agnostic or centralized scenarios, rendering them difficult to adapt directly. To address th
The increasing complexity and scale of AI models, coupled with federated learning paradigms, necessitate robust solutions for handling real-world data imperfections like modality imbalance.
Addressing modality imbalance in federated graph learning is crucial for developing more resilient, fair, and effective AI systems, especially in scenarios with distributed and heterogenous data.
This research provides a foundational step towards practical deployment of federated graph learning by directly tackling a significant data quality challenge that hindered its broader application.
