Heterogeneous Federated Learning (HtFL) methods have been developed to enable collaboration across diverse heterogeneous models while tackling data heterogeneity.
A comprehensive benchmark named Heterogeneous Federated Learning Library (HtFLlib) has been introduced to evaluate and analyze HtFL methods.
HtFLlib integrates 12 datasets, 40 model architectures, and implementations of 10 representative HtFL methods for research and practical applications.
The library aims to advance HtFL research and enable broader applications by providing systematic evaluations in terms of accuracy, convergence, computation costs, and communication costs.
