Distributed Variable Sample-Size Stochastic Optimization With Fixed Step-Sizes

Distributed Variable Sample-Size Stochastic Optimization With Fixed Step-Sizes

In this article, we consider distributed stochastic optimization over randomly switching networks, where agents collaboratively minimize the average of all agents' local expectation-valued convex cost functions. Due to the stochasticity in gradient observations, distributedness of local functions, and randomness of communication topologies, distributed algorithms with an exact convergence guarantee under …
