CoVer: Collaborative Light-Node-Only Verification and Data Availability for Blockchains
Steven Cao, Swanand Kadhe, Kannan Ramchandran
Validating a blockchain incurs heavy computation, communication, and storage costs. As a result, clients with limited resources, called light nodes, cannot verify transactions inde…
FastSecAgg: Scalable Secure Aggregation for Privacy-Preserving Federated Learning
Swanand Kadhe, Nived Rajaraman, O. Ozan Koyluoglu +1
Recent attacks on federated learning demonstrate that keeping the training data on clients' devices does not provide sufficient privacy, as the model parameters shared by clients c…
Service Rate Region: A New Aspect of Coded Distributed System Design
Mehmet Aktas, Gauri Joshi, Swanand Kadhe +2
Erasure coding has been recognized as a powerful method to mitigate delays due to slow or straggling nodes in distributed systems. This work shows that erasure coding of data objec…
Communication-Efficient Gradient Coding for Straggler Mitigation in Distributed Learning
Swanand Kadhe, O. Ozan Koyluoglu, Kannan Ramchandran
Distributed implementations of gradient-based methods, wherein a server distributes gradient computations across worker machines, need to overcome two limitations: delays caused by…
