Personalized Federated Learning via Backbone Self-Distillation

ACM Multimedia Asia 2023, 2023
In practical scenarios, federated learning frequently necessitates training personalized models for each client using heterogeneous data. This paper proposes a backbone self-distillation approach to facilitate personalized federated learning. In this approach, each client trains its local model and only sends the backbone weights to the server.

GNN’s Uncertainty Quantification Using Self-distillation

Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have shown remarkable performance in the healthcare domain. However, what remained challenging is quantifying the predictive uncertainty of GNNs, which is an important aspect of trustworthiness in clinical settings. While Bayesian and ensemble methods can be used to quantify uncertainty, they are computationally expensive ...
