We show how one can phrase the cut improvement problem for graphs as a sparse recovery problem, whence one can use algorithms originally developed for use in compressive sensing (such as SubspacePursuit or CoSaMP) to solve it. We show that…

Given a weighted and complete graph G = (V, E), V denotes the set of n objects to be clustered, and the weight d(u, v) associated with an edge (u, v) belonging to E denotes the dissimilarity between objects u and v. The diameter of a…

Graph clustering or community detection constitutes an important task for investigating the internal structure of graphs, with a plethora of applications in several domains. Traditional techniques for graph clustering, such as spectral…

An uncertain graph $\mathcal{G} = (V, E, p : E \rightarrow (0,1])$ can be viewed as a probability space whose outcomes (referred to as \emph{possible worlds}) are subgraphs of $\mathcal{G}$ where any edge $e\in E$ occurs with probability…
