CSER: Communication-efficient SGD with Error Reset

Cong Xie, Shuai Zheng, Oluwasanmi Koyejo +3

The scalability of Distributed Stochastic Gradient Descent (SGD) is today limited by communication bottlenecks. We propose a novel SGD variant: Communication-efficient SGD with Err…

Local AdaAlter: Communication-Efficient Stochastic Gradient Descent with Adaptive Learning Rates

Cong Xie, Oluwasanmi Koyejo, Indranil Gupta +1

When scaling distributed training, the communication overhead is often the bottleneck. In this paper, we propose a novel SGD variant with reduced communication and adaptive learnin…

Fall of Empires: Breaking Byzantine-tolerant SGD by Inner Product Manipulation

Cong Xie, Sanmi Koyejo, Indranil Gupta

Recently, new defense techniques have been developed to tolerate Byzantine failures for distributed machine learning. The Byzantine model captures workers that behave arbitrarily,…

SLSGD: Secure and Efficient Distributed On-device Machine Learning

Cong Xie, Sanmi Koyejo, Indranil Gupta

We consider distributed on-device learning with limited communication and security requirements. We propose a new robust distributed optimization algorithm with efficient communica…

Zeno: Distributed Stochastic Gradient Descent with Suspicion-based Fault-tolerance

Cong Xie, Oluwasanmi Koyejo, Indranil Gupta

We present Zeno, a technique to make distributed machine learning, particularly Stochastic Gradient Descent (SGD), tolerant to an arbitrary number of faulty workers. Zeno generaliz…
