FedADB: Class Anchor-Driven Dual-Branch Federated Learning for Mitigating Forgetting

Excerpt

arXiv:2608.15310v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multimodal data collected by heterogeneous devices are used for collaborative training, where federated learning (FL) serves as a key paradigm for effective distributed modeling with data privacy preservation. However, local training suffers from the forgetting of previously learned global knowledge under cross-client data heterogeneity, which leads to significant declines in both performance and convergence speed. Most previous studies rely on g
