Various implementations relate to asynchronous training of a machine learning model. A server receives feedback data generated by training the machine learning model from a worker. The feedback data are obtained by the worker with its own training data and are associated with previous values of a set of parameters of the machine learning model at the worker. The server determines differences between the previous values and current values of the set of parameters at the server. The current value may have been updated for once or more due to operation of other workers. Then, the server can update the current values of the set of parameters based on the feedback data and the differences between values of the set of parameters. Thus, the updating does not only take the training result of each worker into consideration but also makes proper compensation for delay between different workers.
