Two new research papers propose novel methods for federated parameter-efficient fine-tuning (PEFT) to address communication bottlenecks and improve model performance on decentralized data. The first paper introduces TRISHUL, a spectral-control framework that uses shared frozen bases and nuclear norm shrinkage to aggregate client updates robustly, showing gains on vision and language benchmarks with LLaMA3.2-1B. The second paper presents FLITE, which leverages mapping networks with a low-rank factorization and delta formulation to achieve significant reductions in communication payload, demonstrating strong performance on CIFAR-100 with ResNet-18, even with extreme data compression.
