Query: FedBN: Federated Learning on Non-IID Features via Local Batch
  Normalization   The emerging paradigm of federated learning (FL) strives to enable
collaborative training of deep models on the network edge without centrally
aggregating raw data and hence improving data privacy. In most cases, the
assumption of independent and identically distributed samples across local
clients does not hold for federated learning setups. Under this setting, neural
network training performance may vary significantly according to the data
distribution and even hurt training convergence. Most of the previous work has
focused on a difference in the distribution of labels or client shifts. Unlike
those settings, we address an important problem of FL, e.g., different
scanners/sensors in medical imaging, different scenery distribution in
autonomous driving (highway vs. city), where local clients store examples with
different distributions compared to other clients, which we denote as feature
shift non-iid. In this work, we propose an effective method that uses local
batch normalization to alleviate the feature shift before averaging models. The
resulting scheme, called FedBN, outperforms both classical FedAvg, as well as
the state-of-the-art for non-iid data (FedProx) on our extensive experiments.
These empirical results are supported by a convergence analysis that shows in a
simplified setting that FedBN has a faster convergence rate than FedAvg. Code
