• Abstract: Federated learning is an efficient machine learning tool for dealing with heterogeneous big data and privacy protection. Federated learning methods with regularization can control the level of communications between the central and local machines. Stochastic gradient descent is often used for implementing such methods on heterogeneous big data, to reduce the communication costs. In this paper, we consider such an algorithm called Loopless Local Gradient Descent which has advantages in reducing the expected communications by controlling a probability level. We improve the method by allowing flexible step sizes and carry out novel analysis for the convergence of the algorithm in a non-convex setting in addition to the standard strongly convex setting. In the non-convex setting, we derive rates of convergence when the smooth objective function satisfies a Polyak-{\L}ojasiewicz condition. When the objective function is strongly convex, a sufficient and necessary condition for the convergence in expectation is presented.

For different types of local updates that can be transmitted by edge devices (i.e., model, gradient, model difference), we reveal that transmitting in AirFedAvg may cause an aggregation error. In addition, we consider more practical signal processing schemes to improve the communication efficiency and extend the convergence analysis to different forms of model aggregation error caused by these signal processing schemes.
