CA-AFP: Cluster-Aware Adaptive Federated Pruning
Om Govind Jha, Harsh Shukla, Haroon R. Lone · 2026-03-02 · via cs.AI updates on arXiv.org

Federated Learning (FL) faces major challenges in real-world deployments due to statistical heterogeneity across clients and system heterogeneity arising from resource-constrained devices. While clustering-based approaches mitigate statistical heterogeneity and pruning techniques improve memory and communication efficiency, these strategies are typically studied in isolation. We propose CA-AFP, a unified framework that jointly addresses both challenges by performing cluster-specific model pruning. In CA-AFP, clients are first grouped into clusters, and a separate model for each cluster is adaptively pruned during training. The framework introduces two key innovations: (1) a cluster-aware importance scoring mechanism that combines weight magnitude, intra-cluster coherence, and gradient consistency to identify parameters for pruning, and (2) an iterative pruning schedule that progressively removes parameters while enabling model self-healing through weight regrowth. We evaluate CA-AFP on two widely used human activity recognition benchmarks, UCI HAR and WISDM, under natural user-based federated partitions. Experimental results demonstrate that CA-AFP achieves a favorable balance between predictive accuracy, inter-client fairness, and communication efficiency. Compared to pruning-based baselines, CA-AFP consistently improves accuracy and lower performance disparity across clients with limited fine-tuning, while requiring substantially less communication than dense clustering-based methods. It also shows robustness to different Non-IID levels of data. Finally, ablation studies analyze the impact of clustering, pruning schedules and scoring mechanism offering practical insights into the design of efficient and adaptive FL systems.
