The chain graph model admits both undirected and directed edges in one graph, where symmetric conditional dependencies are encoded via undirected edges and asymmetric causal relations are encoded via directed edges. Though frequently…
We study the fundamental limits for reconstruction in weighted graph (or matrix) database alignment. We consider a model of two graphs where $\pi^*$ is a planted uniform permutation and all pairs of edge weights $(A_{i,j},…

De-anonymizing user identities by matching various forms of user data available on the internet raises privacy concerns. A fundamental understanding of the privacy leakage in such scenarios requires a careful study of conditions under which…
Graphical models are commonly used to represent conditional dependence relationships between variables. There are multiple methods available for exploring them from high-dimensional data, but almost all of them rely on the assumption that…

Causal discovery aims to recover a causal graph from data generated by it; constraint based methods do so by searching for a d-separating conditioning set of nodes in the graph via an oracle. In this paper, we provide analytic evidence that…
