Choose Awesome-Federated-Learning if…
- Tags unique to Awesome-Federated-Learning: adversarial-attack-and-defense, communication-efficiency, computation-efficiency, computer-vision.
- Also covers Evaluation & Observability.
- When developing federated learning solutions that require comprehensive features like hierarchical models and decentralized approaches.
When NOT to use Awesome-Federated-Learning
- If your project does not benefit from extensive research integration, as this library might introduce unnecessary complexity.
- When the specific licensing details of FedML are uncertain or unaligned with the project's requirements.
Choose mesh if…
- Tags unique to mesh: model parallelism, python, tensorflow.
- When working on large models that benefit from being split across many devices.
- More recently updated (last pushed Nov 17, 2023).
When NOT to use mesh
- If you are looking for a tool that simplifies other aspects of machine learning beyond model-parallel computation.
- For projects with limited GPU/TPU resources where multi-device parallelism is not required.
