  text: Asynchronous distributed algorithms are a popular way to reduce synchronization
    costs in large-scale optimization, and in particular for neural network training.
    However, for nonsmooth and nonconvex objectives, few convergence guarantees exist
    beyond cases where closed-form proximal operator solutions are available. As training
    most popular deep neural networks corresponds to optimizing nonsmooth and nonconvex
    objectives, there is a pressing need for such convergence guarantees. In this
    paper, we analyze for the first time the convergence of stochastic asynchronous
    optimization for this general class of objectives. In particular, we focus on
    stochastic subgradient methods allowing for block variable partitioning, where
    the shared model is asynchronously updated by concurrent processes. To this end,
    we use a probabilistic model which captures key features of real asynchronous
    scheduling between concurrent processes. Under this model, we establish convergence
    with probability one to an invariant set for stochastic subgradient methods with
    momentum. From a practical perspective, one issue with the family of algorithms
    that we consider is that they are not efficiently supported by machine learning
    frameworks, which mostly focus on distributed data-parallel strategies. To address
    this, we propose a new implementation strategy for shared-memory based training
    of deep neural networks for a partitioned but shared model in single- and multi-GPU
    settings. Based on this implementation, we achieve on average1.2x speed-up in
    comparison to state-of-the-art training methods for popular image classification
    tasks, without compromising accuracy.

  text: One key element behind the recent progress of machine learning has been the
    ability to train machine learning models in large-scale distributed shared-memory
    and message-passing environments. Most of these models are trained employing variants
    of stochastic gradient descent (SGD) based optimization, but most methods involve
    some type of consistency relaxation relative to sequential SGD, to mitigate its
    large communication or synchronization costs at scale. In this paper, we introduce
    a general consistency condition covering communication-reduced and asynchronous
    distributed SGD implementations. Our framework, called elastic consistency, decouples
    the system-specific aspects of the implementation from the SGD convergence requirements,
    giving a general way to obtain convergence bounds for a wide variety of distributed
    SGD methods used in practice. Elastic consistency can be used to re-derive or
    improve several previous convergence bounds in message-passing and shared-memory
    settings, but also to analyze new models and distribution schemes. As a direct
    application, we propose and analyze a new synchronization-avoiding scheduling
    scheme for distributed SGD, and show that it can be used to efficiently train
    deep convolutional models for image classification.

  text: 'The Nearest neighbour search (NNS) is a fundamental problem in many application
    domains dealing with multidimensional data. In a concurrent setting, where dynamic
    modifications are allowed, a linearizable implementation of the NNS is highly
    desirable.This paper introduces the LockFree-kD-tree (LFkD-tree ): a lock-free
    concurrent kD-tree, which implements an abstract data type (ADT) that provides
    the operations Add, Remove, Contains, and NNS. Our implementation is linearizable.
    The operations in the LFkD-tree use single-word read and compare-and-swap (Image
    1 ) atomic primitives, which are readily supported on available multi-core processors.
    We experimentally evaluate the LFkD-tree using several benchmarks comprising real-world
    and synthetic datasets. The experiments show that the presented design is scalable
    and achieves significant speed-up compared to the implementations of an existing
    sequential kD-tree and a recently proposed multidimensional indexing structure,
    PH-tree.'

  text: Persistent homology is a powerful tool in Topological Data Analysis (TDA)
    to capture the topological properties of data succinctly at different spatial
    resolutions. For graphical data, the shape, and structure of the neighborhood
    of individual data items (nodes) are an essential means of characterizing their
    properties. We propose the use of persistent homology methods to capture structural
    and topological properties of graphs and use it to address the problem of link
    prediction. We achieve encouraging results on nine different real-world datasets
    that attest to the potential of persistent homology-based methods for network
    analysis.

  text: Graph algorithms applied in many applications, including social networks,
    communication networks, VLSI design, graphics, and several others, require dynamic
    modifications - addition and removal of vertices and/or edges - in the graph.
    This paper presents a novel concurrent non-blocking algorithm to implement a dynamic
    unbounded directed graph in a shared-memory machine. The addition and removal
    operations of vertices and edges are lock-free. For a finite sized graph, the
    lookup operations are wait-free. Most significant component of the presented algorithm
    is the reachability query in a concurrent graph. The reachability queries in our
    algorithm are obstruction-free and thus impose minimal additional synchronization
    cost over other operations. We prove that each of the data structure operations
    are linearizable. We extensively evaluate a sample C/C++ implementation of the
    algorithm through a number of micro-benchmarks. The experimental results show
    that the proposed algorithm scales well with the number of threads and on an average
    provides 5 to 7x performance improvement over a concurrent graph implementation
    using coarse-grained locking.
