Measured effects reported in the paper
| What was changed | Where | Measured | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| Use polynomially growing gradient delays (d_n = O(n^q)) with step size alpha_n ∝ 1/(n log n log log n) instead of bounded delays | DASGD on stochastic variationally coherent problems · theoretical convergence analysis | almost sure convergence to global minimizer | No clear effect |
| Use linearly growing delays with step size 1/(n log n) instead of bounded delays (ablation) | DAGD on Rosenbrock (d=101) with synchronous baseline comparison · Rosenbrock function d=101 | value convergence in simulation | No clear effect |
| Use ergodic averaging of iterates (weighted average) instead of last iterate X_n (ablation) | DASGD on non-convex Rosenbrock function · Rosenbrock function d=101 | value convergence | Hurt |
