The persistence diagram (PD) is an increasingly popular topological descriptor. By encoding the size and prominence of topological features at varying scales, the PD provides important geometric and topological information about a space.…
Removing overlaps is a central task in domains such as scheduling, visibility, and map labelling. This can be modelled using graphs, where overlap removals correspond to enforcing a certain sparsity constraint on the graph structure. We…
We study the problem of finding a spanning forest in an undirected, $n$-vertex multi-graph under two basic query models. One is the Linear query model which are linear measurements on the incidence vector induced by the edges; the other is…
We study the problem of detecting latent geometric structure in random graphs. To this end, we consider the soft high-dimensional random geometric graph $\mathcal{G}(n,p,d,q)$, where each of the $n$ vertices corresponds to an independent…
The graph edit distance (GED) measures the dissimilarity between two graphs as the minimal cost of a sequence of elementary operations transforming one graph into another. This measure is fundamental in many areas such as structural pattern…
Distance oracles are data structures that provide fast (possibly approximate) answers to shortest-path and distance queries in graphs. The tradeoff between the space requirements and the query time of distance oracles is of particular…
This paper addresses the problem of sparse recovery with graph constraints in the sense that we can take additive measurements over nodes only if they induce a connected subgraph. We provide explicit measurement constructions for several…
We consider a specific graph learning task: reconstructing a symmetric matrix that represents an underlying graph using linear measurements. We present a sparsity characterization for distributions of random graphs (that are allowed to…
We study Geometric Graph Edit Distance (GGED), a graph-editing model to compute the minimum edit distance of intersection graphs that uses moving objects as an edit operation. We first show an $O(n\log n)$-time algorithm that minimises the…
An edge-card of a graph G is a subgraph formed by deleting an edge. The edge-reconstruction number of a graph G, ern(G), is the minimum number of edge-cards required to determine G up to isomorphism. A da-ecard is an edge-card which also…
We introduce the following natural generalization of trace reconstruction, parameterized by a deletion probability $\delta \in (0,1)$ and length $n$: There is a length $n$ string of probabilities, $S=p_1,\ldots,p_n,$ and each "trace" is…
Let $V$ be a set of $n$ points in $\mathbb{R}^d$, and suppose that the distance between each pair of points is revealed independently with probability $p$. We study when this information is sufficient to reconstruct large subsets of $V$, up…
We consider the problem of learning distance-based Graph Convolutional Networks (GCNs) for relational data. Specifically, we first embed the original graph into the Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^m$ using a relational density estimation…
We propose a novel exact algorithm for generating connected Erdos-Renyi random graphs $G(n,p)$. The method couples the graph exploration process to an inhomogeneous Poisson random walk, which yields an exact sampler that runs in $O(n)$ time…
We study the properties of random graphs where for each vertex a {\it neighbourhood} has been previously defined. The probability of an edge joining two vertices depends on whether the vertices are neighbours or not, as happens in Small…
$\renewcommand{\Re}{\mathbb{R}}$Given a set $P$ of $n$ points in $\Re^d$, and a parameter $\varepsilon \in (0,1)$, we present a new construction of a directed graph $G$, of size $O(n/\varepsilon^d)$, such that $(1+\varepsilon)$-ANN queries…
Given an undirected graph $G=(V,E)$ of $n$ vertices and $m$ edges with weights in $[1,W]$, we construct vertex sensitive distance oracles (VSDO), which are data structures that preprocess the graph, and answer the following kind of queries:…
For a graph $G$ on $n$ vertices, naively sampling the position of a random walk of at time $t$ requires work $\Omega(t)$. We desire local access algorithms supporting $\text{position}(G,s,t)$ queries, which return the position of a random…
We consider the problem of finding an edge in a hidden undirected graph $G = (V, E)$ with $n$ vertices, in a model where we only allowed queries that ask whether or not a subset of vertices contains an edge. We study the non-adaptive model…
This paper studies the problem of recovering the hidden vertex correspondence between two correlated random graphs. We propose the partially correlated Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi graphs model, wherein a pair of induced subgraphs with a certain…
