Zeroth-Order Non-Convex Optimization for Cooperative Multi-Agent Systems with Diminishing Step Size and Smoothing Radius
Xinran Zheng, Tara Javidi, Behrouz Touri
We study a class of zeroth-order distributed optimization problems, where each agent can control a partial vector and observe a local cost that depends on the joint vector of all a…
Decentralized Asynchronous Non-convex Stochastic Optimization on Directed Graphs
Vyacheslav Kungurtsev, Mahdi Morafah, Tara Javidi +1
Distributed Optimization is an increasingly important subject area with the rise of multi-agent control and optimization. We consider a decentralized stochastic optimization proble…
Heavy Traffic Queue Length Behavior in Switches with Reconfiguration Delay
Chang-Heng Wang, Siva Theja Maguluri, Tara Javidi
Optical switches have been drawing attention due to their large data bandwidth and low power consumption. However, scheduling policies need to account for the schedule reconfigurat…
Distributed Learning of Distributions via Social Sampling
Anand D. Sarwate, Tara Javidi
A protocol for distributed estimation of discrete distributions is proposed. Each agent begins with a single sample from the distribution, and the goal is to learn the empirical di…
A General Class of Throughput Optimal Routing Policies in Multi-hop Wireless Networks
Mohammad Naghshvar, Hairuo Zhuang, Tara Javidi
This paper considers the problem of throughput optimal routing/scheduling in a multi-hop constrained queueing network with random connectivity whose special case includes opportuni…
