Distributed linear regression by averaging
通过参数平均实现分布式线性回归
Distributed statistical learning problems arise commonly when dealing with large datasets. In this setup, datasets are partitioned over machines, which compute locally, and communicate short messages. Communication is often the bottleneck. In this paper, we study one-step and iterative weighted parameter averaging in statistical linear models under data parallelism. We do linear regression on each machine, send the results to a central server and take a weighted average of…
