Abstract
Systems and methods of determining a global model are provided. In particular, one or more local updates can be received from a plurality of user devices. Each local update can be determined by the respective user device based at least in part on one or more data examples stored on the user device. The one or more data examples stored on the plurality of user devices are distributed on an uneven basis, such that no user device includes a representative sample of the overall distribution of data examples. The local updates can then be aggregated to determine a global model.
