Scalable machine learning over big data is an important problem that is receiving a lot of attention in recent years. On popular distributed environments such as Hadoop running on a cluster of commodity machines, communication costs are…

In this paper, we consider the iterative solution of linear algebraic equations under the condition that matrix-vector products with the coefficient matrix are computed only partially. At the same time, non-computed entries are set to…

The main computational cost of algorithms for computing reduced-order models of parametric dynamical systems is in solving sequences of very large and sparse linear systems. We focus on efficiently solving these linear systems, arising…

We present new, simple, fully distributed, practical algorithms with linear time communication cost for irregular gather and scatter operations in which processors contribute or consume possibly different amounts of data. In a linear cost…

Normalizing flows attempt to model an arbitrary probability distribution through a set of invertible mappings. These transformations are required to achieve a tractable Jacobian determinant that can be used in high-dimensional scenarios.…

We consider the distributed computing problem of multiplying a set of vectors with a matrix. For this scenario, Li et al. recently presented a unified coding framework and showed a fundamental tradeoff between computational delay and…

We proposed a new technique to accelerate sampling methods for solving difficult optimization problems. Our method investigates the intrinsic connection between posterior distribution sampling and optimization with Langevin dynamics, and…

Distributed matrix computations -- matrix-matrix or matrix-vector multiplications -- are well-recognized to suffer from the problem of stragglers (slow or failed worker nodes). Much of prior work in this area is (i) either sub-optimal in…

We propose iterative projection methods for solving square or rectangular consistent linear systems Ax = b. Existing projection methods use sketching matrices (possibly randomized) to generate a sequence of small projected subproblems, but…

Iterative solvers for large-scale linear systems such as Krylov subspace methods can diverge when the linear system is ill-conditioned, thus significantly reducing the applicability of these iterative methods in practice for…

Gradient-based distributed learning in Parameter Server (PS) computing architectures is subject to random delays due to straggling worker nodes, as well as to possible communication bottlenecks between PS and workers. Solutions have been…

Energy increasingly constrains modern computer hardware, yet protecting computations and data against errors costs energy. This holds at all scales, but especially for the largest parallel computers being built and planned today. As…

Matrix computations are a fundamental building-block of edge computing systems, with a major recent uptick in demand due to their use in AI/ML training and inference procedures. Existing approaches for distributing matrix computations…

The current BigData era routinely requires the processing of large scale data on massive distributed computing clusters. Such large scale clusters often suffer from the problem of "stragglers", which are defined as slow or failed nodes. The…

In large scale distributed linear transform problems, coded computation plays an important role to effectively deal with "stragglers" (distributed computations that may get delayed due to few slow or faulty processors). We propose a coded…

Coded computation is a framework which provides redundancy in distributed computing systems to speed up largescale tasks. Although most existing works assume an error-free scenarios in a master-worker setup, the link failures are common in…

We propose a solution for linear inverse problems based on higher-order Langevin diffusion. More precisely, we propose pre-conditioned second-order and third-order Langevin dynamics that provably sample from the posterior distribution of…

Distributed optimization has gained a surge of interest in recent years. In this paper we propose a distributed projection free algorithm named Distributed Conditional Gradient Sliding(DCGS). Compared to the state-of-the-art distributed…

Discrete inverse problems correspond to solving a system of equations in a stable way with respect to noise in the data. A typical approach to enforce uniqueness and select a meaningful solution is to introduce a regularizer. While for most…

Data-parallel SGD is the de facto algorithm for distributed optimization, especially for large scale machine learning. Despite its merits, communication bottleneck is one of its persistent issues. Most compression schemes to alleviate this…
