AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

In federated learning, the imbalance in data distribution among clients makes it difficult for the model to effectively capture minority class information with a small number of samples. Existing methods are not applicable or have privacy issues when considering data imbalance, and cannot improve the performance of the global model in scenarios with heterogeneous and imbalanced data.

Method used

A meta-learning-based approach is adopted, which assigns different weights to local data by using class weighting models and sample weighting models on the client and server sides respectively, and updates the weighting model parameters on the server side using metadata for meta-learning, thereby ensuring the robustness of the global model under unbalanced data distribution.

Benefits of technology

It improves the performance of the global model in scenarios with heterogeneous and imbalanced data, enhances the model's ability to capture minority classes, and improves the model's robustness and accuracy.
