Attributed graph clustering or community detection which learns to cluster the nodes of a graph is a challenging task in graph analysis. In this paper, we introduce a contrastive learning framework for learning clustering-friendly node…

By considering the task of finding the shortest walk through a network we find an algorithm for which the run time is not as O(2^n), with n being the number of nodes, but instead scales with the number of nodes in a coarsened network. This…

This paper addresses a class of constrained optimization problems over networks in which local cost functions and constraints can be nonconvex. We propose an asynchronous distributed optimization algorithm, relying on the centralized Method…

Identifying strongly connected substructures in large networks provides insight into their coarse-grained organization. Several approaches based on the optimization of a quality function, e.g., the modularity, have been proposed. We present…

The most commonly used method to tackle the graph partitioning problem in practice is the multilevel approach. During a coarsening phase, a multilevel graph partitioning algorithm reduces the graph size by iteratively contracting nodes and…

In this paper, we consider the problem of clustering graph nodes and sparsifying graph edges over distributed graphs, when graph edges with possibly edge duplicates are observed at physically remote sites. Although edge duplicates across…

Sum-of-norms clustering is a clustering formulation based on convex optimization that automatically induces hierarchy. Multiple algorithms have been proposed to solve the optimization problem: subgradient descent by Hocking et al., ADMM and…

Spectral clustering is a fast and popular algorithm for finding clusters in networks. Recently, Chaudhuri et al. (2012) and Amini et al.(2012) proposed inspired variations on the algorithm that artificially inflate the node degrees for…

For the degree corrected stochastic block model in the presence of arbitrary or even adversarial outliers, we develop a convex-optimization-based clustering algorithm that includes a penalization term depending on the positive deviation of…

Graph clustering involves the task of dividing nodes into clusters, so that the edge density is higher within clusters as opposed to across clusters. A natural, classic and popular statistical setting for evaluating solutions to this…

We aim to improve segmentation through the use of machine learning tools during region agglomeration. We propose an active learning approach for performing hierarchical agglomerative segmentation from superpixels. Our method combines…

Visualization of the adjacency matrix enables us to capture macroscopic features of a network when the matrix elements are aligned properly. Community structure, a network consisting of several densely connected components, is a…

This paper studies a class of distributed optimization problems with coupled equality constraints in networked systems. Many existing distributed algorithms rely on solving local subproblems via the $\operatorname{argmin}$ operator in each…

In this research, we propose a deep learning based approach for speeding up the topology optimization methods. The problem we seek to solve is the layout problem. The main novelty of this work is to state the problem as an image…

We present an analysis for the performance of decentralized consensus-based gradient (DCG) methods for solving optimization problems over a cluster network of nodes. This type of network is composed of a number of densely connected clusters…

Semi-supervised clustering problems focus on clustering data with labels. In this paper,we consider the semi-supervised hypergraph problems. We use the hypergraph related tensor to construct an orthogonal constrained optimization model. The…

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…

Interaction between users in online social networks plays a key role in social network analysis. One on important types of social group is full connected relation between some users, which known as clique structure. Therefore finding a…

This paper considers the problem of clustering a partially observed unweighted graph---i.e., one where for some node pairs we know there is an edge between them, for some others we know there is no edge, and for the remaining we do not know…

Community detection based on modularity maximization is one of the most widely used approaches for uncovering mesoscale structures in complex networks. However, it is well known that the modularity function exhibits a highly degenerate…
