FedLSR

This repository is the official Pytorch implementation DEMO of FedLSR framework in this paper:

Towards Federated Learning against Noisy Labels via Local Self-Regularization (CIKM 2022 full paper track)

The slides for the oral presentation link is here.

Note: For researchers who are interested to adopt this as a baseline, please take care of the difference between FedLSR and FedLSR+ (which is given in the discussion section). The key motivation to append an entropy regularization term (to devise FedLSR+) is to further make the model more robust to extreme noisy labels. For experiments on clothing1M, it is suggested to raise the learning rate to 0.1 for FedLSR's implementation.
