Researchers have developed a new algorithm called VRA-FedSGD to improve federated learning in scenarios with significant noise. This algorithm is designed to handle both heavy-tailed gradient noise and communication noise, which are common in large-scale machine learning applications, particularly those involving the Internet of Things. VRA-FedSGD utilizes momentum variance reduction and nonlinear mapping techniques to mitigate noise and has demonstrated effective convergence rates in simulations for various objective functions. AI
