A Locally Penalized Cross-Estimate Federated Method with Guarantees for Constrained Personalized Learning

Mohammadjavad Ebrahimi, Daniel Burbano, Farzad Yousefian

Federated learning (FL) is a communication-efficient framework for solving distributed optimization problems. Standard FL methods aggregate local updates into a single global model…

On the Sampling-based Computation of Nash Equilibria under Uncertainty via the Nikaido-Isoda Function

Luke Marrinan, Farzad Yousefian, Uday V. Shanbhag

We consider the computation of an equilibrium of a stochastic Nash equilibrium problem, where the player objectives are assumed to be -Lipschitz continuous and convex given ri…

On the Resolution of Stochastic MPECs over Networks: Distributed Implicit Zeroth-Order Gradient Tracking Methods

Mohammadjavad Ebrahimi, Uday V. Shanbhag, Farzad Yousefian

The mathematical program with equilibrium constraints (MPEC) is a powerful yet challenging class of constrained optimization problems, where the constraints are characterized by a…

On iteratively regularized first-order methods for simple bilevel optimization

Sepideh Samadi, Daniel Burbano, Farzad Yousefian

We consider simple bilevel optimization (SBO) problems where the goal is to compute among the optimal solutions of a composite convex optimization problem, one that minimizes a sec…

A Randomized Zeroth-Order Hierarchical Framework for Heterogeneous Federated Learning

Yuyang Qiu, Kibaek Kim, Farzad Yousefian

Heterogeneity in federated learning (FL) is a critical and challenging aspect that significantly impacts model performance and convergence. In this paper, we propose a novel framew…
