The reconfiguration problem for homomorphisms of digraphs to a reflexive digraph cycle, which amounts to deciding if a `reconfiguration graph' is connected, is known to by polynomially time solvable via a greedy algorithm based on certain…
Let $P$ be a set of $n \geq 5$ points in convex position in the plane. The path graph $G(P)$ of $P$ is an abstract graph whose vertices are non-crossing spanning paths of $P$, such that two paths are adjacent if one can be obtained from the…
Topological Data Analysis (TDA) studies the shape of data. A common topological descriptor is the persistence diagram, which encodes topological features in a topological space at different scales. Turner, Mukeherjee, and Boyer showed that…
Network reconstruction consists in determining the unobserved pairwise couplings between $N$ nodes given only observational data on the resulting behavior that is conditioned on those couplings -- typically a time-series or independent…
A point visibility graph is a graph induced by a set of points in the plane, where every vertex corresponds to a point, and two vertices are adjacent whenever the two corresponding points are visible from each other, that is, the open…
A simplicial vertex of a graph is a vertex whose neighborhood is a clique. It is known that listing all simplicial vertices can be done in $O(nm)$ time or $O(n^{\omega})$ time, where $O(n^{\omega})$ is the time needed to perform a fast…
A set of fundamental matrices relating pairs of cameras in some configuration can be represented as edges of a "viewing graph". Whether or not these fundamental matrices are generically sufficient to recover the global camera configuration…
An \emph{obstacle representation} of a graph consists of a set of polygonal obstacles and a distinct point for each vertex such that two points see each other if and only if the corresponding vertices are adjacent. Obstacle representations…
In this paper, we investigate the computational complexity of subgraph reconfiguration problems in directed graphs. More specifically, we focus on the problem of reconfiguring arborescences in a digraph, where an arborescence is a directed…
We study recovering a 1D order from a noisy, locally sampled pairwise comparison matrix under a tight query budget. We recast the task as reconstructing a sparse, noisy line graph and present, to our knowledge, the first method that…
Let $V$ be a finite set of vertices in the plane and $S$ be a finite set of polygonal obstacles, where the vertices of $S$ are in $V$. We show how to construct a plane $2$-spanner of the visibility graph of $V$ with respect to $S$. As this…
The graph projection of a hypergraph is a simple graph with the same vertex set and with an edge between each pair of vertices that appear in a hyperedge. We consider the problem of reconstructing a random $d$-uniform hypergraph from its…
The surface reconstruction problem from sets of planar parallel slices representing cross sections through 3D objects is presented. The final result of surface reconstruction is always based on the correct estimation of the structure of the…
We address 2D floorplan reconstruction from 3D scans. Existing approaches typically employ heuristically designed multi-stage pipelines. Instead, we formulate floorplan reconstruction as a single-stage structured prediction task: find a…
An obstacle representation of a plane graph G is V(G) together with a set of opaque polygonal obstacles such that G is the visibility graph on V(G) determined by the obstacles. We investigate the problem of computing an obstacle…
Visibility graph of a simple polygon is a graph with the same vertex set in which there is an edge between a pair of vertices if and only if the segment through them lies completely inside the polygon. Each pair of adjacent vertices on the…

We study the problem of graph structure identification, i.e., of recovering the graph of dependencies among time series. We model these time series data as components of the state of linear stochastic networked dynamical systems. We assume…
The goal of graph inference is to design algorithms for learning properties of a hidden graph using queries to an oracle that returns information about the graph. Graph reconstruction, verification, and property testing are all types of…
Visibility algorithms are a family of geometric and ordering criteria by which a real-valued time series of N data is mapped into a graph of N nodes. This graph has been shown to often inherit in its topology non-trivial properties of the…
