Federated learning allows multiple clients to collaborate to train high-performance deep learning models while keeping the training data locally. However, when the local data of all clients are not independent and identically distributed…

Decentralized learning has emerged as an alternative method to the popular parameter-server framework which suffers from high communication burden, single-point failure and scalability issues due to the need of a central server. However,…

Nonconvex sparse learning plays an essential role in many areas, such as signal processing and deep network compression. Iterative hard thresholding (IHT) methods are the state-of-the-art for nonconvex sparse learning due to their…

Distributed optimization has gained significant attention in recent years, primarily fueled by the availability of a large amount of data and privacy-preserving requirements. This paper presents a fixed-time convergent optimization…

Federated learning is a powerful paradigm for large-scale machine learning, but it faces significant challenges due to unreliable network connections, slow communication, and substantial data heterogeneity across clients. FedAvg and…

We consider a multi-agent consensus optimization problem over a server-client (federated) network, where all clients are connected to a central server. Current distributed algorithms fail to capture the heterogeneity in clients' local…

We consider distributed nonconvex optimization over an undirected network, where each node privately possesses its local objective and communicates exclusively with its neighboring nodes, striving to collectively achieve a common optimal…

In this paper, we develop a distributed algorithm for solving a class of distributed convex optimization problems where the local objective functions can be a general nonsmooth function, and all equalities and inequalities are network-wide…

We propose an asymptotic framework to analyze the performance of (personalized) federated learning algorithms. In this new framework, we formulate federated learning as a multi-criterion objective, where the goal is to minimize each…

Federated learning, where algorithms are trained across multiple decentralized devices without sharing local data, is increasingly popular in distributed machine learning practice. Typically, a graph structure $G$ exists behind local…

We address nonconvex learning problems over undirected networks. In particular, we focus on the challenge of designing an algorithm that is both communication-efficient and that guarantees the privacy of the agents' data. The first goal is…

Most algorithms for solving optimization problems or finding saddle points of convex-concave functions are fixed-point algorithms. In this work we consider the generic problem of finding a fixed point of an average of operators, or an…

Consensus optimization has received considerable attention in recent years. A number of decentralized algorithms have been proposed for {convex} consensus optimization. However, to the behaviors or consensus \emph{nonconvex} optimization,…

Federated Learning is a machine learning setting where the goal is to train a high-quality centralized model while training data remains distributed over a large number of clients each with unreliable and relatively slow network…

We study distributed composite optimization over networks: agents minimize the sum of a smooth (strongly) convex function, the agents' sum-utility, plus a non-smooth (extended-valued) convex one. We propose a general algorithmic framework…

Federated learning is renowned for its efficacy in distributed model training, ensuring that users, called clients, retain data privacy by not disclosing their data to the central server that orchestrates collaborations. Most previous work…

This paper proposes a client selection (CS) method to tackle the communication bottleneck of federated learning (FL) while concurrently coping with FL's data heterogeneity issue. Specifically, we first analyze the effect of CS in FL and…

Communication compression has become a key strategy to speed up distributed optimization. However, existing decentralized algorithms with compression mainly focus on compressing DGD-type algorithms. They are unsatisfactory in terms of…

Modern mobile devices have access to a wealth of data suitable for learning models, which in turn can greatly improve the user experience on the device. For example, language models can improve speech recognition and text entry, and image…

In Federated Learning (FL), a number of clients or devices collaborate to train a model without sharing their data. Models are optimized locally at each client and further communicated to a central hub for aggregation. While FL is an…
