FedHV: Low-Overhead Hypervolume Weighting for Federated Multi-Objective Optimization
Task-wise federated multi-objective optimization (FedMOO) trains a shared model for competing prediction objectives under heterogeneous data, partial participation, and communication constraints. Existing methods commonly derive task weights from gradient or update geometry. This requires task-specific information or iterative server-side optimization. We introduce FedHV, which maps reference-relative objective slacks to closed-form inverse-slack weights. Each client optimizes one weighted loss and returns objective estimates with its model update. The protocol adds exactly 2m auxiliary scalars per participating client, yielding Theta(d + m) total per-client communication, compared with t...
