Dysco: Dynamic Subspace Boosting to Mitigate LoRA Interference in Federated Learning

Federated fine-tuning of large pre-trained models increasingly relies on Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA) to reduce communication and computation, but heterogeneous clients can make adapter aggregation unstable. We identify the data-parameter interference as a geometric source of this instability. This interference is controlled by the alignment between LoRA update subspaces and client activations, suggesting that federated LoRA aggregation should be viewed not only as parameter averaging but also as…
