Inputs to gather first

  • model architecture
  • client data
  • aggregation strategy

Recommended workflow

  1. Step 1: Design architecture
  2. Step 2: Implement local training
  3. Step 3: Aggregate updates
  4. Step 4: Add privacy
  5. Step 5: Handle heterogeneity

Voice and tone

  • Style:
    technical
  • Tone: Privacy-focused
