Measured effects reported in the paper
| What was changed | Where | Measured | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| learn a shared model with immediate aggregation (OneKernelUCB) instead of independent per-client models | NKernelUCB · synthetic, UCI, MovieLens and Yelp datasets | cumulative regret | Helped |
| communicate every step (OneKernelUCB) instead of never | NKernelUCB · synthetic, UCI, MovieLens and Yelp datasets | communication cost | Hurt |
| transfer raw data at synchronization (DisKernelUCB) | Approx-DisKernelUCB · synthetic, UCI, MovieLens and Yelp datasets | communication cost | Hurt |
| use linear model (DisLinUCB) instead of kernelized model | DisKernelUCB · synthetic, UCI, MovieLens and Yelp datasets | cumulative regret | Hurt |
| use linear model (DisLinUCB) instead of kernelized model | DisKernelUCB · synthetic, UCI, MovieLens and Yelp datasets | communication cost | Helped |
| replace exact kernel estimators with Nystrom approximation over a shared dictionary (Approx-DisKernelUCB) | DisKernelUCB · synthetic, UCI, MovieLens and Yelp datasets | cumulative regret | No clear effect |
