Federated k-Means via Generalized Total Variation Minimization

arXiv:2510.09718v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We consider the problem of federated clustering, where interconnected devices have access to private local datasets and need to jointly cluster the overall dataset without sharing their local dataset. Our focus is on hard clustering…

Simple and Effective Specialized Representations for Fair Classifiers

arXiv:2505.11740v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Fair classification is a critical challenge that has gained increasing importance due to international regulations and its growing use in high-stakes decision-making settings. Existing methods often rely on adversarial learning or distribution matching across sensitive…

Robust Federated Finetuning of LLMs via Alternating Optimization of LoRA

arXiv:2502.01755v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Parameter-Efficient Fine-Tuning (PEFT) methods like Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA) optimize federated training by reducing computational and communication costs. We propose RoLoRA, a federated framework using alternating optimization to fine-tune LoRA adapters. Our approach emphasizes the importance…

FRIREN: Beyond Trajectories — A Spectral Lens on Time

arXiv:2505.17370v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Long-term time-series forecasting (LTSF) models are often presented as general-purpose solutions that can be applied across domains, implicitly assuming that all data is pointwise predictable. Using chaotic systems such as Lorenz-63 as a case study,…

Semantic-Cohesive Knowledge Distillation for Deep Cross-modal Hashing

arXiv:2510.09664v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recently, deep supervised cross-modal hashing methods have achieve compelling success by learning semantic information in a self-supervised way. However, they still suffer from the key limitation that the multi-label semantic extraction process fail to explicitly…
