  1. Numerically Stable Binary Coded Computations.

    2021 · arXiv (Cornell University)

    This paper addresses the gradient coding and coded matrix multiplication problems in distributed optimization and coded computing. We present a numerically stable binary coding method which overcomes the drawbacks of the gradient coding method proposed …

  2. Orthonormal Sketches for Secure Coded Regression

    2022 · arXiv (Cornell University)

    In this work, we propose a method for speeding up linear regression distributively, while ensuring security. We leverage randomized sketching techniques, and improve straggler resilience in asynchronous systems. Specifically, we apply a random orthonormal matrix …

  3. Distributed Multi-User Secret Sharing

    2018 · arXiv (Cornell University)

    We consider a distributed secret sharing system that consists of a dealer, $n$ storage nodes, and $m$ users. Each user is given access to a certain subset of storage nodes, where it can download the …

  4. Differentially Private Coded Computing

    2023

    Distributed computing has attracted significant recent attention for speeding up large-scale computations by disseminating computational jobs from a central master node across several worker nodes/servers. However, worker nodes are often untrusted and can also collude …
