Heterogeneity-Aware Coordination for Federated Learning via Stitching Pre-trained blocks

2024 · arXiv (Cornell University)

Federated learning (FL) coordinates multiple devices to collaboratively train a shared model while preserving data privacy. However, large memory footprint and high energy consumption during the training process excludes the low-end devices from contributing to …

L3TC: Leveraging RWKV for Learned Lossless Low-Complexity Text Compression

2024 · arXiv (Cornell University)

Learning-based probabilistic models can be combined with an entropy coder for data compression. However, due to the high complexity of learning-based models, their practical application as text compressors has been largely overlooked. To address this …

Multi-modal Knowledge Graphs for Recommender Systems
