Novel Calibration Perspective
We propose addressing data heterogeneity in FPL from the perspective of text prompt embedding calibration for the first time. By introducing global geometric priors to correct local training bias, we provide a new research direction for this field. This method avoids optimization within the limited scope of local data by leveraging geometric properties of the embedding distribution to quantify and transmit global prior information efficiently.
Efficient Calibration Module
We design a sample-generation-free Geometric Prior Calibration Layer (GPCL), which, combined with an inverse frequency sampling strategy, achieves efficient end-to-end unbiased calibration while effectively mitigating local class imbalance. GPCL applies random perturbations to local visual embeddings, sampled from a zero-mean distribution defined by global geometric prior, simulating virtual samples that conform to global distribution morphology.
Versatility and Compatibility
The proposed GGTPC method serves as a plug-and-play module, seamlessly integrating into various mainstream federated learning algorithms and consistently improving their performance across different data heterogeneity scenarios. This demonstrates its broad applicability and practical value, as shown in experiments where GGTPC consistently boosts baseline performance.
Multi-Domain Extension
For challenging multi-domain federated settings, clients face dual information gaps (global shape & positional info). GGTPC extends by introducing class prototypes as positional priors. The server distributes shared global geometric prior GS and mean embeddings for each class/domain (prototypes). Clients use these to augment local data and calibrate samples, generating virtual features centered in foreign domains but exhibiting the global shape.
Key Performance Highlight

Case Study: Mitigating Mixed Skew (Label & Domain) Challenges
In the most rigorous settings with concurrent label and domain skew, GGTPC demonstrates immense potential. On the Office-Caltech-LDS dataset, GGTPC boosted accuracy to 98.72% (a 1.45% gain), reducing STD from 1.46 to 1.28. Even more pronounced was its impact on the challenging PACS-LDS dataset, where FedAvg (CoOp) saw its average accuracy increase from 96.72% to 98.90% (a 2.18% gain), with STD drastically compressed from 3.78 to 1.50. These results unequivocally prove our strategy's success in calibrating both distributional shape bias and compensating for positional information loss caused by domain shift.
