We propose a new distributed algorithm for computing a truncated Newton method, where the main diagonal of the Hessian is computed using belief propagation. As a case study for this approach, we examine the sensor selection problem, a Boolean convex optimization problem. We form two distributed algorithms. The first algorithm is a distributed version of the interior point method by Joshi and Boyd, and the second algorithm is an order of magnitude faster approximation. As an example application we discuss distributed anomaly detection in networks. We demonstrate the applicability of our solution using both synthetic data and real traffic logs collected from the Abilene Internet backbone.
