A tutorial on distributed (non-bayesian) learning: Problem, algorithms and results

A Nedić, A Olshevsky, CA Uribe - 2016 IEEE 55th Conference …, 2016 - ieeexplore.ieee.org

algorithms known as non-Bayesian social learning. We consider different approaches to the …

Nonasymptotic concentration rates in cooperative learning–part i: Variational non-Bayesian social learning

CA Uribe, A Olshevsky, A Nedić - IEEE Transactions on Control …, 2022 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
In this article, we studied the problem of cooperative inference where a group of agents
interacts over a network and seeks to estimate a joint parameter that best explains a set of …

Bayesian learning without recall

MA Rahimian, A Jadbabaie - IEEE Transactions on Signal and …, 2016 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
We analyze a model of learning and belief formation in networks in which agents follow
Bayes rule yet they do not recall their history of past observations and cannot reason about …

We study the problem of cooperative inference where a group of agents interact over a
network and seek to estimate a joint parameter that best explains a set of observations …

Non-Bayesian social learning with uncertain models over time-varying directed graphs

CA Uribe, JZ Hare, L Kaplan… - 2019 IEEE 58th …, 2019 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
We study the problem of non-Bayesian social learning with uncertain models, in which a
network of agents seek to cooperatively identify the state of the world based on a sequence …

Group decision-making among privacy-aware agents

M Papachristou, MA Rahimian - arxiv preprint arxiv:2402.08156, 2024 - arxiv.org
How can individuals exchange information to learn from each other despite their privacy
needs and security concerns? For example, consider individuals deliberating a contentious …

Distributed learning with infinitely many hypotheses

A Nedić, A Olshevsky, CA Uribe - 2016 IEEE 55th Conference …, 2016 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
We consider a distributed learning setup where a network of agents sequentially access
realizations of a set of random variables with unknown distributions. The network objective is …

Iterated learning in dynamic social networks

B Chazelle, C Wang - Journal of Machine Learning Research, 2019 - jmlr.org
A classic finding by (Kalish et al., 2007) shows that no language can be learned iteratively
by rational agents in a self-sustained manner. In other words, if A teaches a foreign …
