In distributed optimization and machine learning, multiple nodes coordinate to solve large problems. To do this, the nodes need to compress important algorithm information to bits so that it can be communicated over a digital channel. The…
A variant of the well-known Shortest Path Problem is studied in this paper, where pairs of conflicting arcs are provided, and for each conflicting pair a penalty is paid once neither or both of the arcs are selected. This configures a set…
