Abstract
A method () for distributed machine learning, ML, using a set of N CDs. The method includes obtaining first topology information, wherein, for each CD included in the set of N CDs, the first topology information identifies other CDs included in the set of N CDs to which the CD is connected, thereby identifying a set of CD pairs. The method also includes obtaining first network state information, wherein, for each CD included in the set of N CDs, the first network state information comprises a network state vector for the CD, wherein the network state vector for the CD comprises, for each other CD to which the CD is indicated as being connected by the first topology information, a determined network state value. The method further includes determining a consensus weight matrix (W) using the obtained first network state information and the first topology information.
