ProxSkip algorithm achieves linear speedup in distributed optimization

Researchers have developed a unified convergence analysis for the ProxSkip algorithm in distributed optimization, extending its applicability to non-convex, convex, and strongly convex problems. This analysis demonstrates that ProxSkip can achieve linear speedup with respect to the number of nodes, even with stochastic gradients. The findings also highlight the effectiveness of local updates in reducing communication frequency and improving overall efficiency. AI
