Better Bounds for the Distributed Experts Problem

ArXi:2603.09168v1 Announce Type: new In this paper, we study the distributed experts problem, where $n$ experts are distributed across $s$ servers for $T$ timesteps. The loss of each expert at each time $t$ is the $\ell_p$ norm of the vector that consists of the losses of the expert at each of the $s$ servers at time $t$. The goal is to minimize the regret $R$, i.e., the loss of the distributed protocol compared to the loss of the best expert, amortized over the all $T$ times, while using the minimum amount of communication.
