Robust Coreset Construction for Distributed Machine Learning

Coreset, which is a summary of the original dataset in the form of a small weighted set in the same sample space, provides a promising approach to enable machine learning over distributed data. Although viewed as a proxy of the original dataset, each coreset is only designed to approximate the cost function of a specific machine learning problem, and thus different coresets are often required to solve different machine learning problems, increasing the communication overhead. We resolve this dil...
