Consider two networks on overlapping, non-identical vertex sets. Given vertices of interest in the first network, we seek to identify the corresponding vertices, if any exist, in the second network. While in moderately sized networks graph…

In this paper, we consider a multi-agent resilient consensus problem, where some of the nodes may behave maliciously. The approach is to equip all nodes with a scheme to detect neighboring nodes when they behave in an abnormal fashion. To…

Let $N$ local decision makers in a sensor network communicate with their neighbors to reach a decision \emph{consensus}. Communication is local, among neighboring sensors only, through noiseless or noisy links. We study the design of the…

We consider the problem of estimating the topology of multiple networks from nodal observations, where these networks are assumed to be drawn from the same (unknown) random graph model. We adopt a graphon as our random graph model, which is…

Data defined over a network have been successfully modelled by means of graph filters. However, although in many scenarios the connectivity of the network is known, e.g., smart grids, social networks, etc., the lack of well-defined…
