Understanding the bottlenecks in implementing stochastic gradient descent (SGD)-based distributed support vector machines (SVM) algorithm is important in training larger data sets. The communication time to do the model synchronization across the parallel processes is the main bottleneck that causes inefficiency in the training process. The model synchronization is directly affected by the mini-batch size of data processed before the global synchronization. In producing an efficient distributed model, the communication time in training model synchronization has to be as minimum as possible while retaining a high testing accuracy. The effect from model synchronization frequency over the convergence of the algorithm and accuracy of the generated model must be well understood to design an efficient distributed model. In this research, we identify the bottlenecks in model synchronization in parallel stochastic gradient descent (PSGD)-based SVM algorithm with respect to the training model synchronization frequency (MSF). Our research shows that by optimizing the MSF in the data sets that we used, a reduction of 98% in communication time can be gained (16x - 24x speed up) with respect to high-frequency model synchronization. The training model optimization discussed in this paper guarantees a higher accuracy than the sequential algorithm along with faster convergence.
Conditional Stochastic Optimization (CSO) covers a variety of applications ranging from meta-learning and causal inference to invariant learning. However, constructing unbiased gradient estimates in CSO is challenging due to the composition structure
We design and implement a distributed multinode synchronous SGD algorithm, without altering hyper parameters, or compressing data, or altering algorithmic behavior. We perform a detailed analysis of scaling, and identify optimal design points for dif
Within the context of hybrid quantum-classical optimization, gradient descent based optimizers typically require the evaluation of expectation values with respect to the outcome of parameterized quantum circuits. In this work, we explore the conseque

Despite the strong theoretical guarantees that variance-reduced finite-sum optimization algorithms enjoy, their applicability remains limited to cases where the memory overhead they introduce (SAG/SAGA), or the periodic full gradient computation they
