Task2vec Readiness: Diagnostics for Federated Learning from Pre-Training Embeddings

Federated learning (FL) performance is highly sensitive to heterogeneity across clients, yet practitioners lack reliable methods to anticipate how a federation will behave before training. We propose readiness indices, derived from Task2Vec embeddings, that quantifies the alignment of a federation prior to training and correlates with its eventual performance. Our approach computes unsupervised metrics -- such as cohesion, dispersion, and density -- directly from client embeddings. We evaluate t
