XGBoost Plugin for Federated Learning
|
|
=====================================
|
|
|
|
This folder contains the plugin for federated learning. Follow these steps to build and test it.
|
|
|
|
Install gRPC
|
|
------------
|
|
Refer to the [installation guide from the gRPC website](https://grpc.io/docs/languages/cpp/quickstart/).
|
|
|
|
Build the Plugin
|
|
----------------
|
|
```shell
|
|
# Under xgboost source tree.
|
|
mkdir build
|
|
cd build
|
|
cmake .. -GNinja \
|
|
-DPLUGIN_FEDERATED=ON \
|
|
-DBUILD_WITH_CUDA_CUB=ON \
|
|
-DUSE_CUDA=ON\
|
|
-DUSE_NCCL=ON
|
|
ninja
|
|
cd ../python-package
|
|
pip install -e . # or equivalently python setup.py develop
|
|
```
|
|
If CMake fails to locate gRPC, you may need to pass `-DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=<grpc path>` to CMake.
|
|
|
|
Test Federated XGBoost
|
|
----------------------
|
|
```shell
|
|
# Under xgboost source tree.
|
|
cd tests/distributed
|
|
# This tests both CPU training (`hist`) and GPU training (`gpu_hist`).
|
|
./runtests-federated.sh
|
|
```
