ICML Workshop on Coding Theory for Large-scale Machine Learning (2019)
In this work we present distributed generalized clustering algorithms (with k-means and PCA as special cases) that can handle large scale data across multiple machines in spite of straggling or unreliable machines. We propose a novel data assignment scheme that enables us to obtain global information about data even when some machines fail to respond. The assignment scheme leads to distributed algorithms with good approximation guarantees for a variety of clustering and dimensionality reduction problems.
We maintain a portfolio of research projects, providing individuals and teams the freedom to emphasize specific types of work
