Communication Compression for Byzantine Robust Learning: New Efficient Algorithms and Improved Rates

Ahmad Rammal, Kaja Gruntkowska, Nikita Fedin +2

Byzantine robustness is an essential feature of algorithms for certain distributed optimization problems, typically encountered in collaborative/federated learning. These problems…

Variance Reduced Distributed Non-Convex Optimization Using Matrix Stepsizes

Hanmin Li, Avetik Karagulyan, Peter Richtárik

Matrix-stepsized gradient descent algorithms have been shown to have superior performance in non-convex optimization problems compared to their scalar counterparts. The det-CGD alg…

High-Probability Convergence for Composite and Distributed Stochastic Minimization and Variational Inequalities with Heavy-Tailed Noise

Eduard Gorbunov, Abdurakhmon Sadiev, Marina Danilova +5

High-probability analysis of stochastic first-order optimization methods under mild assumptions on the noise has been gaining a lot of attention in recent years. Typically, gradien…

2Direction: Theoretically Faster Distributed Training with Bidirectional Communication Compression

Alexander Tyurin, Peter Richtárik

We consider distributed convex optimization problems in the regime when the communication between the server and the workers is expensive in both uplink and downlink directions. We…

Catalyst Acceleration of Error Compensated Methods Leads to Better Communication Complexity

Xun Qian, Hanze Dong, Tong Zhang +1

Communication overhead is well known to be a key bottleneck in large scale distributed learning, and a particularly successful class of methods which help to overcome this bottlene…
