We study tabular reinforcement learning problems with multiple steps of lookahead information. Before acting, the learner observes $\ell$ steps of future transition and reward realizations: the exact state the agent would reach and the…

Personalized federated learning (PFL) is an approach proposed to address the issue of poor convergence on heterogeneous data. However, most existing PFL frameworks require strong assumptions for convergence. In this paper, we propose an…

Minimizing sum of two functions under a linear constraint is what we called splitting problem. This convex optimization has wide applications in machine learning problems, such as Lasso, Group Lasso and Sparse logistic regression. A recent…

As an edge intelligence algorithm for multi-device collaborative training, federated learning (FL) can reduce the communication burden but increase the computing load of wireless devices. In contrast, split learning (SL) can reduce the…

In many learning tasks, certain requirements on the processing of individual data samples should arguably be formalized as strict constraints in the underlying optimization problem, rather than by means of arbitrary penalties. We show that,…
