SplitFed-CL: A Split Federated Co-Learning Framework for Medical Image Segmentation with Inaccurate Labels

arXiv CS.CV

ArXi:2605.11060v1 Announce Type: cross Split Federated Learning (SplitFed) combines federated and split learning to preserve privacy while reducing client-side computation. However, in medical image segmentation, heterogeneous label quality across clients can significantly degrade performance. We propose SplitFed-CL, a co-learning framework where a global teacher guides local students to detect and refine unreliable annotations. Reliable labels supervise
