decopt 2.0.8

State of the art decentralized optimization library

Linearly Convergent Decentralized Learning with Arbitrary Communication Compression

How do I run the Code?

A. Install our package: 
pip3 install decopt

(A.1) Often get the latest update:
 pip3 install decopt --upgrade 

B. Get Data: 
sh pull_data.sh breast_cancer

c. Run script with default parameters: 
python3 driver.py

With different parameters:
python3 driver.py --d 'mnist' --n_cores 10 --algorithms 'ours'
