A new model-driven quantum federated learning algorithm (mdQFL) has been introduced to address challenges in quantum federated learning (QFL).
The algorithm aims to tackle training bottlenecks, involvement of a large number of devices, and non-IID data distributions efficiently.
Through extensive experiments in the Qiskit environment, the mdQFL framework demonstrated a nearly 50% decrease in total communication costs while maintaining or exceeding model accuracy.
The experimental evaluation also includes a theoretical analysis of the proposed mdQFL algorithm and its complexities.
