We present a one-shot method for compressing large labeled graphs called Random Edge Coding. When paired with a parameter-free model based on P\'olya's Urn, the worst-case computational and memory complexities scale quasi-linearly and…

We show a deterministic algorithm for computing edge connectivity of a simple graph with $m$ edges in $m^{1+o(1)}$ time. Although the fastest deterministic algorithm by Henzinger, Rao, and Wang [SODA'17] has a faster running time of…

We consider the problem of inference in a causal generative model where the set of available observations differs between data instances. We show how combining samples drawn from the graphical model with an appropriate masking function…

We present a graph sampling and coarsening scheme (gSC) for computing lower and upper bounds for large-scale supply chain models. An edge sampling scheme is used to build a low-complexity problem that is used to finding an approximate (but…

In the Edge Bipartization problem one is given an undirected graph $G$ and an integer $k$, and the question is whether $k$ edges can be deleted from $G$ so that it becomes bipartite. In 2006, Guo et al. [J. Comput. Syst. Sci.,…

Suppose that we are given an arbitrary graph $G=(V, E)$ and know that each edge in $E$ is going to be realized independently with some probability $p$. The goal in the stochastic matching problem is to pick a sparse subgraph $Q$ of $G$ such…

Edge bundling reduces the visual clutter in a drawing of a graph by uniting the edges into bundles. We propose a method of edge bundling drawing each edge of a bundle separately as in metro-maps and call our method ordered bundles. To…
