Statefinder Parameters for Tachyon Dark Energy Model
In this paper we study the statefinder parameters for the tachyon dark energy
model. There are two kinds of stable attractor solutions in this model. The
statefinder diagrams characterize the properties of the tachyon dark energy
model. Our results show that the evolving trajectories of the attractor
solutions lie in the total region and pass through the LCDM fixed point, which
is different from other dark energy model.Comment: 5 pages, 5 figures, accepted by MPL
Heterogeneity-aware Clustered Distributed Learning for Multi-source Data Analysis
In diverse fields ranging from finance to omics, it is increasingly common
that data is distributed and with multiple individual sources (referred to as
``clients'' in some studies). Integrating raw data, although powerful, is often
not feasible, for example, when there are considerations on privacy protection.
Distributed learning techniques have been developed to integrate summary
statistics as opposed to raw data. In many of the existing distributed learning
studies, it is stringently assumed that all the clients have the same model. To
accommodate data heterogeneity, some federated learning methods allow for
client-specific models. In this article, we consider the scenario that clients
form clusters, those in the same cluster have the same model, and different
clusters have different models. Further considering the clustering structure
can lead to a better understanding of the ``interconnections'' among clients
and reduce the number of parameters. To this end, we develop a novel
penalization approach. Specifically, group penalization is imposed for
regularized estimation and selection of important variables, and fusion
penalization is imposed to automatically cluster clients. An effective ADMM
algorithm is developed, and the estimation, selection, and clustering
consistency properties are established under mild conditions. Simulation and
data analysis further demonstrate the practical utility and superiority of the
proposed approach
