内容摘要：Federated learning is a new distributed learning paradigm that can preserve data privacy in machine learning. One of the main challenges in federated learning is to reduce the communication costs for transmitting model parameters between local devices and the central server and vice versa. This talk presents some most recent work on communication efficient federated learning, including constructing compact local models, introducing layer-wise asynchronous parameter update, and using ternary quantization. At the end of the talk, future directions of research in federated learning will be briefly discussed.
