• Federated Learning for Non-IID Data via Client Variance Reduction and Adaptive Server Update

  arXiv (Cornell University) · 2022-07-18 · 1 citations

  preprintOpen access1st authorCorresponding

  Federated learning (FL) is an emerging technique used to collaboratively train a global machine learning model while keeping the data localized on the user devices. The main obstacle to FL's practical implementation is the Non-Independent and Identical (Non-IID) data distribution across users, which slows convergence and degrades performance. To tackle this fundamental issue, we propose a method (ComFed) that enhances the whole training process on both the client and server sides. The key idea o…

• VLSP 2025 MLQA-TSR Challenge: Vietnamese Multimodal Legal Question Answering on Traffic Sign Regulation

  ArXiv.org · 2025-10-23

  preprintOpen access

  This paper presents the VLSP 2025 MLQA-TSR - the multimodal legal question answering on traffic sign regulation shared task at VLSP 2025. VLSP 2025 MLQA-TSR comprises two subtasks: multimodal legal retrieval and multimodal question answering. The goal is to advance research on Vietnamese multimodal legal text processing and to provide a benchmark dataset for building and evaluating intelligent systems in multimodal legal domains, with a focus on traffic sign regulation in Vietnam. The best-repor…
