FedTVD: Balancing Data Quality and Quantity for Robust Federated Learning
Quick summary
arXiv:2608.09221v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Federated Learning (FL) enables collaborative model training across distributed client devices while preserving data privacy. However, FL faces significant challenges due to data heterogeneity, particularly in terms of label distribution skewness and variations in dataset sizes, which can lead to biased model updates and hinder convergence. To address this, we propose FedTVD, a novel FL algorithm that weights client contributions during aggregation by considering both data quality and quantity. Unlike traditional FL approaches such as FedAvg, w
