{\it SimRank} is a classic measure of the similarities of nodes in a graph. Given a node $u$ in graph $G =(V, E)$, a {\em single-source SimRank query} returns the SimRank similarities $s(u, v)$ between node $u$ and each node $v \in V$. This…
Consider the setting of \emph{randomly weighted graphs}, namely, graphs whose edge weights are chosen independently according to probability distributions with finite support over the non-negative reals. Under this setting, properties of…
Growing popularity of social networks demands a highly efficient Personalized PageRank (PPR) updating due to the fast-evolving web graphs of enormous size. While current researches are focusing on PPR updating under link structure…
The \emph{Single-Source Personalized PageRank} (SSPPR) query is central to graph OLAP, measuring the probability $\pi(s,t)$ that an $\alpha$-decay random walk from node $s$ terminates at $t$. Despite decades of research, a significant gap…
Given a graph G and a node u in G, a single source SimRank query evaluates the similarity between u and every node v in G. Existing approaches to single source SimRank computation incur either long query response time, or expensive…

The importance of a node in a directed graph can be measured by its PageRank. The PageRank of a node is used in a number of application contexts - including ranking websites - and can be interpreted as the average portion of time spent at…
Over the last decade, PageRank has gained importance in a wide range of applications and domains, ever since it first proved to be effective in determining node importance in large graphs (and was a pioneering idea behind Google's search…
There has been a rising interest in graph neural networks (GNNs) for representation learning over the past few years. GNNs provide a general and efficient framework to learn from graph-structured data. However, GNNs typically only use the…
Local graph partitioning is a key graph mining tool that allows researchers to identify small groups of interrelated nodes (e.g. people) and their connective edges (e.g. interactions). Because local graph partitioning is primarily focused…
Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) excel in node classification tasks but often assume homophily, where connected nodes share similar labels. This assumption does not hold in many real-world heterophilic graphs. Existing models for heterophilic…
Local graph clustering methods aim to find small clusters in very large graphs. These methods take as input a graph and a seed node, and they return as output a good cluster in a running time that depends on the size of the output cluster…
Given an undirected graph G and a seed node s, the local clustering problem aims to identify a high-quality cluster containing s in time roughly proportional to the size of the cluster, regardless of the size of G. This problem finds…
