Aggregated Gradient

Aggregated gradient methods are central to distributed machine learning, aiming to efficiently combine gradient updates from multiple sources (e.g., devices in federated learning) to train a shared model. Current research focuses on improving the robustness and privacy of aggregation techniques, addressing challenges like stragglers, data heterogeneity, and adversarial attacks through adaptive weighting schemes, coded computation, and secure aggregation protocols. These advancements are crucial for scaling machine learning to larger datasets and diverse environments while mitigating privacy risks and improving model accuracy and efficiency in various applications.
