Although Federated Learning (FL) enables collaborative learning in Artificial Intelligence of Things (AIoT) design, it fails to work on low-memory AIoT devices due to its heavy memory usage. To address this problem, various federated pruning methods are proposed to reduce memory usage during inference. However, few of them can substantially mitigate the memory burdens during pruning and training. As an alternative, zeroth-order or backpropagation-free (BP-Free) methods can partially alleviate the memory consumption, but they suffer from scaling up and large computation overheads, since the gradient estimation error and floating point operations (FLOPs) increase as the dimensionality of the model parameters grows. In this paper, we propose a federated foresight pruning method based on Neural Tangent Kernel (NTK), which can seamlessly integrate with federated BP-Free training frameworks. We present an approximation to the computation of federated NTK by using the local NTK matrices. Moreover, we demonstrate that the data-free property of our method can substantially reduce the approximation error in extreme data heterogeneity scenarios. Since our approach improves the performance of the vanilla BP-Free method with fewer FLOPs and truly alleviates memory pressure during training and inference, it makes FL more friendly to low-memory devices. Comprehensive experimental results obtained from simulation- and real test-bed-based platforms show that our federated foresight-pruning method not only preserves the ability of the dense model with a memory reduction up to 9x but also boosts the performance of the vanilla BP-Free method with dramatically fewer FLOPs.
