PARTITIONED ITERATIVE CONVERGANCE PROGRAMMING MODEL

摘要

Methods and systems for iterative convergence include performing at least one global iteration. Each global iteration includes partitioning input data into multiple input data partitions according to an input data partitioning function, partitioning a model into multiple model partitions according to a model partitioning function, performing at least one local iteration using a processor to compute sub-problems formed from a model partition and an input data partition to produce multiple locally updated models, and combining the locally updated models from the at least one local iteration according to a model merging function to produce a merged model.
