We study graph-based Laplacian semi-supervised learning at low labeling rates. Laplacian learning uses harmonic extension on a graph to propagate labels. At very low label rates, Laplacian learning becomes degenerate and the solution is…

The paper presents fault-tolerant (FT) labeling schemes for general graphs, as well as, improved FT routing schemes. For a given $n$-vertex graph $G$ and a bound $f$ on the number of faults, an $f$-FT connectivity labeling scheme is a…

Laplace learning is a popular machine learning algorithm for finding missing labels from a small number of labelled feature vectors using the geometry of a graph. More precisely, Laplace learning is based on minimising a graph-Dirichlet…

Cheeger's fundamental inequality states that any edge-weighted graph has a vertex subset $S$ such that its expansion (a.k.a. conductance) is bounded as follows: \[ \phi(S) \defeq \frac{w(S,\bar{S})}{\min \set{w(S), w(\bar{S})}} \leq…

This paper deals with extensions of vector-valued functions on finite graphs fulfilling distinguished minimality properties. We show that so-called lex and L-lex minimal extensions are actually the same and call them minimal Lipschitz…

We study black-box optimization of Lipschitz functions under noisy evaluations. Existing adaptive discretization methods implicitly avoid suboptimal regions but do not provide explicit certificates of optimality or measurable progress…

Finding independent sets of maximum size in fixed graphs is well known to be an NP-hard task. Using scaling limits, we characterise the asymptotics of sequential degree-greedy explorations and provide sufficient conditions for this…

We study harmonic map regression, a nonparametric estimator for manifold-valued responses, that penalizes the empirical Fr\'echet risk by the Dirichlet energy. By connecting penalized regression to the theory of harmonic maps, the estimator…

Property graphs can be used to represent heterogeneous networks with labeled (attributed) vertices and edges. Given a property graph, simulating another graph with same or greater size with the same statistical properties with respect to…

We study the problem of maximizing a submodular function, subject to a cardinality constraint, with a set of agents communicating over a connected graph. We propose a distributed greedy algorithm that allows all the agents to converge to a…
