arXiv:2608. 09208v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Decentralized intelligence systems with heterogeneous devices and limited coordination increasingly rely on decentralized federated learning (DFL).
The paper compares distributed adversarial training algorithms—both centralized and decentralized—within multi‑agent learning environments. It introduces a theoretical framework to analyze how efficiently these algorithms escape local minima, a property linked to model flatness and robustness. The study finds that with small perturbation bounds and large batch sizes, decentralized methods (consensus and diffusion) escape local minima faster than centralized ones, but this advantage may diminish as attack strength increases.
arXiv:2412. 07151v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Distributed model training needs to be adapted to challenges such as the straggler effect and Byzantine attacks.
Decentralized intelligence systems with heterogeneous devices and limited coordination increasingly rely on decentralized federated learning (DFL). However, DFL suffers from convergence inefficiency under data heterogeneity due to the use of a uniform learning rate (LR) that ignores layer-specific optimization needs.
