Learning for Learning: Predictive Online Control of Federated Learning with Edge Provisioning |
Abstract | ||
|---|---|---|
Operating federated learning optimally over distributed cloud-edge networks is a non-trivial task, which requires to manage data transference from user devices to edges, resource provisioning at edges, and federated learning between edges and the cloud. We formulate a non-linear mixed integer program, minimizing the long-term cumulative cost of such a federated learning system while guaranteeing the desired convergence of the machine learning models being trained. We then design a set of novel polynomial-time online algorithms to make adaptive decisions by solving continuous solutions and converting them to integers to control the system on the fly, based only on the predicted inputs about the dynamic and uncertain cloud-edge environments via online learning. We rigorously prove the competitive ratio, capturing the multiplicative gap between our approach using predicted inputs and the offline optimum using actual inputs. Extensive evaluations with real-world training datasets and system parameters confirm the empirical superiority of our approach over multiple state-of-the-art algorithms. |
