Abstract

Due to user privacy and regulatory restrictions, federate learning (FL) is proposed as a distributed learning framework for training deep neural networks (DNN) on decentralized data clients. Recent advancements in FL have applied Neural Architecture Search (NAS) to replace the predefined one-size-fit-all DNN model, which is not optimal for all tasks of various data distributions, with searchable DNN architectures. However, previous methods suffer from expensive communication cost rasied by frequent large model parameters transmission between the server and clients. Such difficulty is further amplified when combining NAS algorithms, which commonly require prohibitive computation and enormous model storage. Towards this end, we propose FAQS, an efficient personalized FL-NAS-Quantization framework to reduce the communication cost with three features: weight-sharing super kernels, bit-sharing quantization and masked transmission. FAQS has an affordable search time and demands very limited size of transmitted messages at each round. By setting different personlized pareto function loss on local clients, FAQS can yield heterogeneous hardware-aware models for various user preferences. Experimental results show that FAQS achieves average reduction of 1.58x in communication bandwith per round compared with normal FL framework and 4.51x compared with FL+NAS framwork.
