DTZO: Distributed Trilevel Zeroth Order Learning with Provable Non-Asymptotic Convergence

ICML 2025poster

Trilevel learning (TLL) with zeroth order constraints is a fundamental problem in machine learning, arising in scenarios where gradient information is inaccessible due to data privacy or model opacity, such as in federated learning, healthcare, and financial systems. These problems are notoriously d…

Tri-Level Navigator: LLM-Empowered Tri-Level Learning for Time Series OOD Generalization

NeurIPS 2024poster

Out-of-Distribution (OOD) generalization in machine learning is a burgeoning area of study. Its primary goal is to enhance the adaptability and resilience of machine learning models when faced with new, unseen, and potentially adversarial data that significantly diverges from their original training…

Asynchronous Distributed Bilevel Optimization

ICLR 2023poster

Bilevel optimization plays an essential role in many machine learning tasks, ranging from hyperparameter optimization to meta-learning. Existing studies on bilevel optimization, however, focus on either centralized or synchronous distributed setting. The centralized bilevel optimization approaches r…
