We propose a novel distributed algorithm to cluster graphs. The algorithm recovers the solution obtained from spectral clustering without the need for expensive eigenvalue/vector computations. We prove that, by propagating waves through the…
Spectral clustering is one of the most popular clustering algorithms that has stood the test of time. It is simple to describe, can be implemented using standard linear algebra, and often finds better clusters than traditional clustering…
Seeding then expanding is a commonly used scheme to discover overlapping communities in a network. Most seeding methods are either too complex to scale to large networks or too simple to select high-quality seeds, and the non-principled…
Numerous works have been proposed to generate random graphs preserving the same properties as real-life large scale networks. However, many real networks are better represented by hypergraphs. Few models for generating random hypergraphs…
Conventional network data has largely focused on pairwise interactions between two entities, yet multi-way interactions among multiple entities have been frequently observed in real-life hypergraph networks. In this article, we propose a…
Visual grouping is a key mechanism in human scene perception. There, it belongs to the subconscious, early processing and is key prerequisite for other high level tasks such as recognition. In this paper, we introduce an efficient, realtime…
Structural node embeddings, vectors capturing local connectivity information for each node in a graph, have many applications in data mining and machine learning, e.g., network alignment and node classification, clustering and anomaly…
This article investigates a distributed aggregative optimization problem subject to coupled affine inequality constraints, in which local objective functions depend not only on their own decision variables but also on an aggregation of all…
While there has been tremendous activity in the area of statistical network inference on graphs, hypergraphs have not enjoyed the same attention, on account of their relative complexity and the lack of tractable statistical models. We…
Local dependence random graph models are a class of block models for network data which allow for dependence among edges under a local dependence assumption defined around the block structure of the network. Since being introduced by…
Many important real-world applications-such as social networks or distributed data bases-can be modeled as hypergraphs. In such a model, vertices represent entities-such as users or data records-whereas hyperedges model a group membership…
The application of the network approach to the urban case poses several questions in terms of how to deal with metric distances, what kind of graph representation to use, what kind of measures to investigate, how to deepen the correlation…
We prove that given any $\alpha$-approximation LOCAL algorithm for Minimum Dominating Set (MDS) on planar graphs, we can construct an $f(g)$-round $(3\alpha+1)$-approximation LOCAL algorithm for MDS on graphs embeddable in a given Euler…
The apparent disconnection between the microscopic and the macroscopic is a major issue in the understanding of complex systems. To this extend, we study the convergence of repeatedly applying local rules on a network, and touch on the…
A graph embedding is a representation of graph vertices in a low-dimensional space, which approximately preserves properties such as distances between nodes. Vertex sequence-based embedding procedures use features extracted from linear…
We study large-scale, distributed graph clustering. Given an undirected graph, our objective is to partition the nodes into disjoint sets called clusters. A cluster should contain many internal edges while being sparsely connected to other…
The network flow optimization approach is offered for Bayesian segmentation of gray-scale and color images. It is supposed image pixels are characterized by a feature function taking finite number of arbitrary rational values (it can be…
Several systems can be represented by hypergraphs, an extension of graphs with associations between any number of vertices. These natural hypergraphs doe not appear at once. They are generated by some dynamical process of hypergraph…
Dual descent methods are commonly used to solve network flow optimization problems, since their implementation can be distributed over the network. These algorithms, however, often exhibit slow convergence rates. Approximate Newton methods…
