Federated learning is a distributed learning that allows each client to keep the original data locally and only upload the parameters of the local model to the server. Despite federated learning can address data island, it remains challenging to train with data heterogeneous in a real application. In this paper, we propose FedSiam-DA, a novel dual-aggregated contrastive federated learning approach, to personalize both local and global models, under various settings of data heterogeneity. Firstly, based on the idea of contrastive learning in the siamese network, FedSiam-DA regards the local and global model as different branches of the siamese network during the local training and controls the update direction of the model by constantly changing model similarity to personalize the local model. Secondly, FedSiam-DA introduces dynamic weights based on model similarity for each local model and exercises the dual-aggregated mechanism to further improve the generalization of the global model. Moreover, we provide extensive experiments on benchmark datasets, the results demonstrate that FedSiam-DA achieves outperforming several previous FL approaches on heterogeneous datasets.
Due to the dynamics and uncertainty of the dynamic multi-objective optimization problems (DMOPs), it is difficult for algorithms to find a satisfactory solution set before the next environmental change, especially for some complex environments. One reason may be that the information in the environmental static stage can not be used well in the traditional framework. In this paper, a novel framework based on generational and environmental response strategies (FGERS) is proposed, in which response strategies are run both in the environmental change stage and the environmental static stage to obtain population evolution information of those both stages. Unlike in the traditional framework, response strategies are only run in the environmental change stage. For simplicity, the feed-forward center point strategy was chosen to be the response strategy in the novel dynamic framework (FGERS-CPS). FGERS-CPS is not only to predict change trend of the optimum solution set in the environmental change stage, but to predict the evolution trend of the population after several generations in the environmental static stage. Together with the feed-forward center point strategy, a simple memory strategy and adaptive diversity maintenance strategy were used to form the complete FGERS-CPS. On 13 DMOPs with various characteristics, FGERS-CPS was compared with four classical response strategies in the traditional framework. Experimental results show that FGERS-CPS is effective for DMOPs.
