Accelerated Consensus and Decentralized Optimization over Slowly Varying Networks
Darina Dvinskikh, Anton Novitskii, Demyan Yarmoshik +3
We study average consensus over slowly time-varying networks and its application to decentralized optimization. We introduce WAVE, a windowed Chebyshev method that limits the accum…

Clipped or Unclipped? Finite-Sample Trade-offs for Averaged SGD under Heavy-Tailed Noise
Alexandra Suvorikova, Egor Gladin, Darina Dvinskikh +5
Gradient clipping is widely used to stabilize training, but it need not improve the statistical accuracy of averaged SGD, even under heavy-tailed noise. We derive a finite-sample c…
