Measured effects reported in the paper
| What was changed | Where | Measured | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| add model-contrastive loss to local training | FedAvg · CIFAR-10, CIFAR-100, and Tiny-Imagenet non-IID test sets | top-1 accuracy: 66.3% -> 69.1%; 64.5% -> 67.5%; 23.0% -> 25.1% | Helped |
| add model-contrastive loss to local training | FedAvg · CIFAR-10, CIFAR-100, and Tiny-Imagenet | communication rounds to reach FedAvg's standard-round accuracy: 100 -> 27; 100 -> 43; 20 -> 11 | Helped |
| replace model-contrastive loss with ℓ2 representation regularization (ablation) | MOON · CIFAR-10, CIFAR-100, and Tiny-Imagenet | top-1 accuracy: 69.1% -> 65.8%; 67.5% -> 66.9%; 25.1% -> 24.0% | Hurt |
| add projection head (ablation) | MOON · CIFAR-10 and CIFAR-100 | top-1 accuracy: 66.8% -> 69.1%; 66.1% -> 67.5% | Helped |
| reduce contrastive-loss weight to μ=0.1 (ablation) | MOON · CIFAR-10 | top-1 accuracy: 66.3% -> 66.5% | No clear effect |
| increase contrastive-loss weight from μ=0 to μ=1 (ablation) | MOON · CIFAR-10 | top-1 accuracy: 66.3% -> 68.4% | Helped |
| increase maximum negative pairs from 1 to 2 (ablation) | MOON · CIFAR-10 | top-1 accuracy: 69.1% -> 67.2% | Hurt |
| increase maximum negative pairs from 1 to 5 (ablation) | MOON · CIFAR-10 | top-1 accuracy: 69.1% -> 67.7% | Hurt |
| increase maximum negative pairs from 1 to 100 (ablation) | MOON · CIFAR-10 | top-1 accuracy: 69.1% -> 63.5% | Hurt |
| apply model-contrastive loss with IID rather than heterogeneous party data (ablation) | FedAvg · CIFAR-10 IID partition | top-1 accuracy: 73.4% -> 73.6% (μ=0.1); 73.4% -> 73.6% (μ=1) | No clear effect |
