What is recorded here?
Corrected local stochastic updates using client and global control variates, updating both models and correction state to reduce drift from heterogeneous client objectives.
Source-linked catalogue note. A detailed explanatory guide has not yet been prepared for this entry.
Scientific scope
Pinned 2019 six-author on-device version, before the 2020 conference form. Inherits control-variate/variance-reduction methods. Analyzed rates require specified smoothness, stochastic-oracle and convexity regimes; no arbitrary nonconvex global-optimum guarantee. Maintaining client correction state and extra communication impose costs, especially for rarely returning clients. No cryptographic or DP guarantee from optimization alone.
