LESS-VFL: Communication-Efficient Feature Selection for Vertical Federated Learning

Timothy Castiglia, Yi Zhou, Shiqiang Wang +3

We propose LESS-VFL, a communication-efficient feature selection method for distributed systems with vertically partitioned data. We consider a system of a server and several parti…

Flexible Vertical Federated Learning with Heterogeneous Parties

Timothy Castiglia, Shiqiang Wang, Stacy Patterson

We propose Flexible Vertical Federated Learning (Flex-VFL), a distributed machine algorithm that trains a smooth, non-convex function in a distributed system with vertically partit…

Compressed-VFL: Communication-Efficient Learning with Vertically Partitioned Data

Timothy Castiglia, Anirban Das, Shiqiang Wang +1

We propose Compressed Vertical Federated Learning (C-VFL) for communication-efficient training on vertically partitioned data. In C-VFL, a server and multiple parties collaborative…

Cross-Silo Federated Learning for Multi-Tier Networks with Vertical and Horizontal Data Partitioning

Anirban Das, Timothy Castiglia, Shiqiang Wang +1

We consider federated learning in tiered communication networks. Our network model consists of a set of silos, each holding a vertical partition of the data. Each silo contains a h…

Multi-Level Local SGD for Heterogeneous Hierarchical Networks

Timothy Castiglia, Anirban Das, Stacy Patterson

We propose Multi-Level Local SGD, a distributed gradient method for learning a smooth, non-convex objective in a heterogeneous multi-level network. Our network model consists of a…

A Hierarchical Model for Fast Distributed Consensus in Dynamic Networks

Timothy Castiglia, Colin Goldberg, Stacy Patterson

We present two new consensus algorithms for dynamic networks. The first, Fast Raft, is a variation on the Raft consensus algorithm that reduces the number of message rounds in typi…

Shifting Opinions in a Social Network Through Leader Selection

Yuhao Yi, Timothy Castiglia, Stacy Patterson

We study the French-DeGroot opinion dynamics in a social network with two polarizing parties. We consider a network in which the leaders of one party are given, and we pose the pro…
