Cluster detection plays a fundamental role in the analysis of data. In this paper, we focus on the use of s-defective clique models for network-based cluster detection and propose a nonlinear optimization approach that efficiently handles…
This work examines the problem of clique enumeration on a graph by exploiting its clique covers. The principle of inclusion/exclusion is applied to determine the number of cliques of size $r$ in the graph union of a set $\mathcal{C} =…
EPG graphs, introduced by Golumbic et al. in 2009, are edge-intersection graphs of paths on an orthogonal grid. The class $B_k$-EPG is the subclass of EPG graphs where the path on the grid associated to each vertex has at most $k$ bends.…

We study the problem of stochastic combinatorial pure exploration (CPE), where an agent sequentially pulls a set of single arms (a.k.a. a super arm) and tries to find the best super arm. Among a variety of problem settings of the CPE, we…
We study the allocation problem in the Massively Parallel Computation (MPC) model. This problem is a special case of $b$-matching, in which the input is a bipartite graph with capacities greater than $1$ in only one part of the bipartition.…
A clique in a graph is a set of vertices, each of which is adjacent to every other vertex in this set. A k-clique relaxes this requirement, requiring vertices to be within a distance k of each other, rather than directly adjacent. In…
In this work, we present a constant-round algorithm for the $2$-ruling set problem in the Congested Clique model. As a direct consequence, we obtain a constant round algorithm in the MPC model with linear space-per-machine and optimal total…
Massively-parallel graph algorithms have received extensive attention over the past decade, with research focusing on three memory regimes: the superlinear regime, the near-linear regime, and the sublinear regime. The sublinear regime is…
The first output-sensitive algorithm for the Maximal Clique Listing problem was given by Tsukiyama et.al. in 1977. As any algorithm falling within the Reverse Search paradigm, it performs a DFS visit of a directed tree (the RS-tree) having…
