Abstract

Statistical heterogeneity limits federated learning when a single global classifier cannot represent client-specific label distributions. In this work, we propose Personalized Federated Knowledge Distillation with Head Adaptation (pFedKDH), which aggregates only the shared backbone, keeps persistent client-specific heads, and uses a recalibrated global head as a teacher during local training.
