Linear Convergence Rate of a Class of Distributed Augmented Lagrangian Algorithms
Abstract
We study distributed optimization where nodes cooperatively minimize the sum of their individual, locally known, convex costs fi(x)'s; x ϵ ℝdis global. Distributed augmented Lagrangian (AL) methods have good empirical performance on several signal processing and learning applications, but there is limited understanding of their convergence rates and how it depends on the underlying network. This paper establishes globally linear (geometric) convergence rates of a class of deterministic and randomized distributed AL methods, when the fi's are twice continuously differentiable and have a bounded Hessian. We give explicit dependence of the convergence rates on the underlying network parameters. Simulations illustrate our analytical findings.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
