Learning fair graph representations for downstream applications is becoming increasingly important, but existing work has mostly focused on improving fairness at the global level by either modifying the graph structure or objective function…
Modeling distributed computing in a way enabling the use of formal methods is a challenge that has been approached from different angles, among which two techniques emerged at the turn of the century: protocol complexes, and directed…
Semi-supervised node classification in attributed graphs, i.e., graphs with node features, involves learning to classify unlabeled nodes given a partially labeled graph. Label predictions are made by jointly modeling the node and its'…
Node classification on graphs is a significant task with a wide range of applications, including social analysis and anomaly detection. Even though graph neural networks (GNNs) have produced promising results on this task, current…
We consider the problem of classifying a map using a team of communicating robots. It is assumed that all robots have localized visual sensing capabilities and can exchange their information with neighboring robots. Using a graph…
Graph Convolutional Network (GCN) is an emerging technique for information retrieval (IR) applications. While GCN assumes the homophily property of a graph, real-world graphs are never perfect: the local structure of a node may contain…
Local thresholding algorithms were first presented more than a decade ago and have since been applied to a variety of data mining tasks in peer-to-peer systems, wireless sensor networks, and in grid systems. One critical assumption made by…
Image space feature detection is the act of selecting points or parts of an image that are easy to distinguish from the surrounding image region. By combining a repeatable point detection with a descriptor, parts of an image can be matched…
A scalable semi-supervised node classification method on graph-structured data, called GraphHop, is proposed in this work. The graph contains attributes of all nodes but labels of a few nodes. The classical label propagation (LP) method and…
Dynamic heterogeneous networks describe the temporal evolution of interactions among nodes and edges of different types. While there is a rich literature on finding communities in dynamic networks, the application of these methods to…
In this paper, we study the problem of certifying whether a graph is bipartite (i.e. $2$-colorable) with a locally checkable proof (LCP) that is able to hide a $2$-coloring from the verifier. More precisely, we say an LCP for $2$-coloring…
Distributed proofs are mechanisms enabling the nodes of a network to collectivity and efficiently check the correctness of Boolean predicates on the structure of the network, or on data-structures distributed over the nodes (e.g., spanning…
We study the problem of classifying the nodes of a given graph in the self-directed learning setup. This learning setting is a variant of online learning, where rather than an adversary determining the sequence in which nodes are presented,…
The graph isomorphism is to determine whether two graphs are isomorphic. A closely related problem is automorphism detection, where an isomorphism between two graphs is a bijection between their vertex sets that preserves adjacency, and an…
In the study of deterministic distributed algorithms it is commonly assumed that each node has a unique $O(\log n)$-bit identifier. We prove that for a general class of graph problems, local algorithms (constant-time distributed algorithms)…
Vertex classification -- the problem of identifying the class labels of nodes in a graph -- has applicability in a wide variety of domains. Examples include classifying subject areas of papers in citation networks or roles of machines in a…
