We study an extension of the classical graph cut problem, wherein we replace the modular (sum of edge weights) cost function by a submodular set function defined over graph edges. Special cases of this problem have appeared in different…
We consider the problem of minimizing the sum of cost functions pertaining to agents over a network whose topology is captured by a directed graph (i.e., asymmetric communication). We cast the problem into the ADMM setting, via a consensus…

We analyze a new property of directed acyclic graphs (DAGs), called layerwidth, arising from a class of DAGs proposed by Eiter and Lukasiewicz. This class of DAGs permits certain problems of structural model-based causality and explanation…
Directed Acyclic Graphical (DAG) models efficiently formulate causal relationships in complex systems. Traditional DAGs assume nodes to be scalar variables, characterizing complex systems under a facile and oversimplified form. This paper…
Given a directed acyclic graph (DAG) $G = (V,E)$, we say that $G$ is $(e,d)$-depth-robust (resp. $(e,d)$-edge-depth-robust) if for any set $S \subset V$ (resp. $S \subseteq E$) of at most $|S| \leq e$ nodes (resp. edges) the graph $G-S$…
Directed acyclic graph (DAG) tasks are currently adopted in the real-time domain to model complex applications from the automotive, avionics, and industrial domains that implement their functionalities through chains of intercommunicating…
Viral information like rumors or fake news is spread over a communication network like a virus infection in a unidirectional manner: entity $i$ conveys information to a neighbor $j$, resulting in two equally informed (infected) parties.…
In portfolio compression, market participants (banks, organizations, companies, financial agents) sign contracts, creating liabilities between each other, which increases the systemic risk. Large, dense markets commonly can be compressed by…
With the advance of complex large-scale networks, it is becoming increasingly important to understand how selfish and spatially distributed individuals will share network resources without centralized coordinations. In this paper, we…

We consider the problem of estimating the differences between two causal directed acyclic graph (DAG) models with a shared topological order given i.i.d. samples from each model. This is of interest for example in genomics, where changes in…
Data defined over a network have been successfully modelled by means of graph filters. However, although in many scenarios the connectivity of the network is known, e.g., smart grids, social networks, etc., the lack of well-defined…
In this article, we propose a new hypothesis testing method for directed acyclic graph (DAG). While there is a rich class of DAG estimation methods, there is a relative paucity of DAG inference solutions. Moreover, the existing methods…

Dense networks with weighted connections often exhibit a community like structure, where although most nodes are connected to each other, different patterns of edge weights may emerge depending on each node's community membership. We…
