Byzantine-Resilient Multi-Agent System

Rachid Guerraoui, Alexandre David Olivier Maurer

We consider the problem of making a multi-agent system (MAS) resilient to Byzantine failures through replication. We consider a very general model of MAS, where randomness can be involved in the behavior of each agent. We propose the first universal scheme ...

No-regret learning in games with noisy feedback: Faster rates and adaptivity via learning rate separation

Volkan Cevher, Kimon Antonakopoulos, Ya-Ping Hsieh

We examine the problem of regret minimization when the learner is involved in a continuous game with other optimizing agents: in this case, if all players follow a no-regret algorithm, it is possible to achieve significantly lower regret relative to fully ...

Byzantine Fault-Tolerant Distributed Machine Learning with Norm-Based Comparative Gradient Elimination

Nirupam Gupta, Shuo Liu

This paper considers the Byzantine fault-tolerance problem in distributed stochastic gradient descent (D-SGD) method - a popular algorithm for distributed multi-agent machine learning. In this problem, each agent samples data points independently from a ce ...

Adaptive Social Learning

Ali H. Sayed, Virginia Bordignon

This work proposes a novel strategy for social learning by introducing the critical feature of adaptation. In social learning, several distributed agents update continually their belief about a phenomenon of interest through: i) direct observation of strea ...

Distributed Meta-Learning with Networked Agents

Ali H. Sayed, Mert Kayaalp, Stefan Vlaski

Meta-learning aims to improve efficiency of learning new tasks by exploiting the inductive biases obtained from related tasks. Previous works consider centralized or federated architectures that rely on central processors, whereas, in this paper, we propos ...

Private and Secure Distributed Learning

Georgios Damaskinos

The ever-growing number of edge devices (e.g., smartphones) and the exploding volume of sensitive data they produce, call for distributed machine learning techniques that are privacy-preserving. Given the increasing computing capabilities of modern edge de ...

Robust Distributed Learning

El Mahdi El Mhamdi

Whether it occurs in artificial or biological substrates, {\it learning} is a {distributed} phenomenon in at least two aspects. First, meaningful data and experiences are rarely found in one location, hence {\it learners} have a strong incentive to work t ...

The Performance of Byzantine Fault Tolerant Blockchains

Vincent Gramoli

Blockchains have captured the attention of many, resulting in an abundance of new systems available for use. However, selecting an appropriate blockchain for an application is challenging due to the lack of comparative information discussing core metrics s ...

Distributed Learning over Networks under Subspace Constraints

Ali H. Sayed, Stefan Vlaski, Roula Nassif

This work presents and studies a distributed algorithm for solving optimization problems over networks where agents have individual costs to minimize subject to subspace constraints that require the minimizers across the network to lie in a low-dimensional ...

Robust Adaptive Decision Making: Bayesian Optimization and Beyond

Ilija Bogunovic

The central task in many interactive machine learning systems can be formalized as the sequential optimization of a black-box function. Bayesian optimization (BO) is a powerful model-based framework for \emph{adaptive} experimentation, where the primary go ...
