Analysis of communication efficiency for Federated Learning coordination strategies, quantified by the total uploaded and downloaded data volume.

A research result applies to its stated dataset, split, metric and evaluation configuration. Compare like-for-like settings, preserve the metric's unit and direction, and distinguish paper-reported results from independent reproduction. The best result recorded here is not a claim of exhaustive, current global coverage.

| Scope | Recorded value |
| --- | --- |
| Task | Communication Cost Analysis |
| Dataset (including any stated split) | Federated Learning Coordination |
| Metric | Total Upload Volume |
| Unit | SIZE |
| Direction | Lower is better |
| Results loaded | 3 of 3 |
| Coverage | All results currently returned for this benchmark |

Evaluation settings may differ between results. The original papers and recorded configurations are needed to establish comparability. A shared metric name alone does not establish an identical protocol.

## Metrics

- [Total Upload Volume](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/communication-cost-analysis-on-federated-learning-coordination.md?metric=Total%20Upload%20Volume>): Lower is better; unit: SIZE.

- [Total Download Volume](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/communication-cost-analysis-on-federated-learning-coordination.md?metric=Total%20Download%20Volume>): Lower is better; unit: SIZE.

- [Total Communication Volume](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/communication-cost-analysis-on-federated-learning-coordination.md?metric=Total%20Communication%20Volume>): Lower is better; unit: SIZE.
