I am implementing federated learning through tensorflow-federated. The tutorial and all other material available compared the accuracy of the federated (global) model after each communication round. Is there a way I can compute the accuracy of each local model to compare against federated (global) model.
Summary: Total number of clients: 15 For each communication round: Local vs Federated Model performance

I dont know how you can achieve this with tff.learning.build_federated_averaging_process but I recommend you to take a look at this simple fedavg implementation. Here you can use test_data -the same evaluation dataset you use in server model- for each client. I would suggest you to do client_test_datasets = [test_data for x in sampled_train_ids]. Then pass this as iterative_process.next(server_state, sampled_train_data, client_test_datasets ). Here you need to change the signatures for run_one_round and client_update_fn in the simple_fedavg_tff.py. In each case the signatures from test datasets shall be same as the ones for training dataset. Dont forget actually passing appropriate test datasets as input to each. Now move on to simple_fedavg_tf.py and change your client_update. Here you basically need to write evaluation very similar to one done for server model. Thereafter print the evaluation results if you wish or change the outputs for each level (tf.function, tff.tf_computation, and tff.federated_computation) and pass the eval results as output. If you go this way dont forget to update the output of iterative_process.next
edit: I assumed you wanted the accuracy of clients when the test dataset is the same as server test dataset.
