We consider a stochastic model for distributed average consensus, which arises in applications such as load balancing for parallel processors, distributed coordination of mobile a...
We consider the effect of network throughput on the convergence of a specific class of distributed averaging algorithms, called consensus algorithms. These algorithms rely on itera...
— Estimation of Distribution Algorithm (EDA) is a well-known stochastic optimization technique. The average time complexity is a crucial criterion that measures the performance o...
— We come up with novel quantized averaging algorithms on synchronous and asynchronous communication networks with fixed, switching and random topologies. The implementation of ...
— The paper studies distributed average consensus in sensor networks, when the sensors exchange quantized data at each time step. We show that randomizing the exchanged sensor da...
