Coded computation is a method to mitigate "stragglers" in distributed computing systems through the use of error correction coding that has lately received significant attention. First used in vector-matrix multiplication, the range of…

In federated distributed learning, the goal is to optimize a global training objective defined over distributed devices, where the data shard at each device is sampled from a possibly different distribution (a.k.a., heterogeneous or non…

We study decentralized online convex optimization when agents communicate over a graph and messages may be compressed. Classical decentralized online methods typically require learning-rate choices that depend on the horizon, comparator…

The goal of this paper is to debunk and dispel the magic behind black-box optimizers and stochastic optimizers. It aims to build a solid foundation on how and why the techniques work. This manuscript crystallizes this knowledge by deriving…

In distributed and federated learning algorithms, communication overhead is often reduced by performing multiple local updates between communication rounds. However, due to data heterogeneity across nodes and the local gradient noise within…

Decoupled learning is a branch of model parallelism which parallelizes the training of a network by splitting it depth-wise into multiple modules. Techniques from decoupled learning usually lead to stale gradient effect because of their…

Multimodal learning often encounters the under-optimized problem and may have worse performance than unimodal learning. Existing methods attribute this problem to the imbalanced learning between modalities and rebalance them through…

Distributionally robust optimization (DRO) problems are increasingly seen as a viable method to train machine learning models for improved model generalization. These min-max formulations, however, are more difficult to solve. We therefore…

Decentralized training of deep learning models is a key element for enabling data privacy and on-device learning over networks, as well as for efficient scaling to large compute clusters. As current approaches suffer from limited bandwidth…

Distributed deep learning is an effective way to reduce the training time of deep learning for large datasets as well as complex models. However, the limited scalability caused by network overheads makes it difficult to synchronize the…

Stochastic gradient algorithms have been the main focus of large-scale learning problems and they led to important successes in machine learning. The convergence of SGD depends on the careful choice of learning rate and the amount of the…

We consider the problem of computing the convolution of two long vectors using parallel processing units in the presence of "stragglers". Stragglers refer to the small fraction of faulty or slow processors that delays the entire computation…
