Scalar Federated Learning for Linear Quadratic Regulator
Mohammadreza Rostami, Shahriar Talebi, Solmaz S. Kia
We propose ScalarFedLQR, a communication-efficient federated algorithm for model-free learning of a common policy in linear quadratic regulator (LQR) control of heterogeneous agent…
FedMPDD: Communication-Efficient Federated Learning with Privacy Preservation Attributes via Projected Directional Derivative
Mohammadreza Rostami, Solmaz S. Kia
This paper introduces \texttt{FedMPDD} (\textbf{Fed}erated Learning via \textbf{M}ulti-\textbf{P}rojected \textbf{D}irectional \textbf{D}erivatives), a novel algorithm that simulta…
Time-Varying Convex Optimization with Computational Complexity
M. Rostami, S. S. Kia
In this article, we consider the problem of unconstrained time-varying convex optimization, where the cost function changes with time. We provide an in-depth technical analysis of…
FedScalar: Federated Learning with Scalar Communication for Bandwidth-Constrained Networks
M. Rostami, S. S. Kia
In bandwidth-constrained federated learning~(FL) settings, the repeated upload of high-dimensional model updates from agents to a central server constitutes the primary bottleneck,…
