ABSTRACT In Federated Learning, we aim to train models across multiple computing units (users), while users can only communicate with a common central server, without exchanging their data samples. This mechanism exploits the computational power of all users and allows users to obtain a richer model as their models are trained over a larger set…

ABSTRACT In recent years, autonomous unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) that can execute aggressive (i.e., fast and agile) maneuvers have attracted significant attention. We focus on the design of control algorithms for accurate tracking of such maneuvers. This problem is complicated by aerodynamic effects that significantly impact vehicle dynamics at high speeds. In contrast, typical multicopter…

ABSTRACT The success of minimax learning problems of generative adversarial networks (GANs) and adversarial training has been observed to depend on the minimax optimization algorithm used for their training. This dependence is commonly attributed to the convergence speed and robustness properties of the underlying optimization algorithm. In this talk, we present theoretical and numerical results…
