Abstract
Techniques for adaptive asynchronous federated learning are described herein. An aspect includes providing a first version of a global parameter to a first client and a second client. Another aspect includes receiving, from the first client, a first gradient, wherein the first gradient was computed by the first client based on the first version of the global parameter and a respective first local dataset of the first client. Another aspect includes determining whether the first version of the global parameter matches a most recent version of the global parameter. Another aspect includes, based on determining that the first version of the global parameter does not match the most recent version of the global parameter, selecting a version of the global parameter. Another aspect includes aggregating the first gradient with the selected version of the global parameter to determine an updated version of the global parameter.
