Adaptive Heterogeneous Compression for Resource-Efficient Federated Knowledge Distillation
A heterogeneous compression framework for FedKD is proposed that enables each client to select a compression strategy from a candidate strategy set, and an Adaptive heterogeneouS Compression algorithm for fEderated kNowledge Distillation (ASCEND), which employs an exponential moving average (EMA)-enhanced $\epsilon$-greedy policy to balance exploration and exploitation.
