• Abstract summary: Newton-type (NT) methods have been advocated as enablers of robust convergence rates in DO problems. We propose Q-SHED, an original NT algorithm for DO featuring a novel bit-allocation scheme based on incremental Hessian eigenvectors quantization. We show that Q-SHED can reduce by up to 60% the number of communication rounds required for convergence.

• Abstract: Edge networks call for communication efficient (low overhead) and robust distributed optimization (DO) algorithms. These are, in fact, desirable qualities for DO frameworks, such as federated edge learning techniques, in the presence of data and system heterogeneity, and in scenarios where internode communication is the main bottleneck. Although computationally demanding, Newton-type (NT) methods have been recently advocated as enablers of robust convergence rates in challenging DO problems where edge devices have sufficient computational power. Along these lines, in this work we propose Q-SHED, an original NT algorithm for DO featuring a novel bit-allocation scheme based on incremental Hessian eigenvectors quantization. The proposed technique is integrated with the recent SHED algorithm, from which it inherits appealing features like the small number of required Hessian computations, while being bandwidth-versatile at a bit-resolution level. Our empirical evaluation against competing approaches shows that Q-SHED can reduce by up to 60% the number of communication rounds required for convergence.

  We present a novel approach to non-cube optimization with certificates, which handles smooth functions on the hypercube or on the torus. By exploiting the regularity of the target function intrinsic in the decay of its spectrum, we allow at the same time to obtain precise certificates and leverage the advanced and powerful neural networks.
