Abstract:

With the popularity of mobile devices, massive amounts of data are constantly produced.The data privacy policies are becoming more and more specified, the flow and use of data are strictly regulated.Federated learning can break data barriers and use client data for modeling.Because users have different habits, there are significant differences between different client data.How to solve the statistical challenge caused by the data imbalance becomes an important topic in federated learning research.Using the fast learning ability of meta learning, it becomes an important way to train different personalized models for different clients to solve the problem of data imbalance in federated learning.The definition and classification of federated learning, as well as the main problems of federated learning were introduced systematically based on the background of federated learning.The main problems included privacy protection, data heterogeneity and limited communication.The research work of federated metalearning in solving the heterogeneous data, the limited communication environment, and improving the robustness against malicious attacks were introduced systematically starting from the background of federated meta learning.Finally, the summary and prospect of federated meta learning were proposed.

Key words: federated learning, meta learning, heterogeneous data, federated meta learning, privacy protection
