The Graph Motif problem was introduced in 2006 in the context of biological networks. It consists of deciding whether or not a multiset of colors occurs in a connected subgraph of a vertex-colored graph. Graph Motif has been mostly analyzed…
The problems studied in this article originate from the Graph Motif problem introduced by Lacroix et al. in the context of biological networks. The problem is to decide if a vertex-colored graph has a connected subgraph whose colors equal a…
One of the most important concepts in biological network analysis is that of network motifs, which are patterns of interconnections that occur in a given network at a frequency higher than expected in a random network. In this work we are…
Let $G=(V,E)$ be a vertex-colored graph, where $C$ is the set of colors used to color $V$. The Graph Motif (or GM) problem takes as input $G$, a multiset $M$ of colors built from $C$, and asks whether there is a subset $S\subseteq V$ such…
Many variations of the classical graph coloring model have been intensively studied due to their multiple applications; scheduling problems and aircraft assignments, for instance, motivate the robust coloring problem. This model gets to…
The maximum modularity of a graph is a parameter widely used to describe the level of clustering or community structure in a network. Determining the maximum modularity of a graph is known to be NP-complete in general, and in practice a…
The problem of finding paths in temporal graphs has been recently considered due to its many applications. In this paper we consider a variant of the problem that, given a vertex-colored temporal graph, asks for a path whose vertices have…
In this paper we investigate the colorful components framework, motivated by applications emerging from comparative genomics. The general goal is to remove a collection of edges from an undirected vertex-colored graph $G$ such that in the…
The evolution of gene regulatory networks in variable environments poses Multi-objective Optimization Problem (MOP), where the expression levels of genes must be tuned to meet the demands of each environment. When formalized in the context…
We study a variation of the graph colouring problem on random graphs of finite average connectivity. Given the number of colours, we aim to maximise the number of different colours at neighbouring vertices (i.e. one edge distance) of any…
A new heuristic based on vertex invariants is developed to rapidly distinguish non-isomorphic graphs to a desired level of accuracy. The method is applied to sample subgraphs from an E.coli protein interaction network, and as a probe for…
This paper deals with the complexity of some natural graph problems when parametrized by {measures that are restrictions of} clique-width, such as modular-width and neighborhood diversity. The main contribution of this paper is to introduce…
Colouring sparse graphs under various restrictions is a theoretical problem of significant practical relevance. Here we consider the problem of maximizing the number of different colours available at the nodes and their neighbourhoods,…
Can we efficiently compute optimal solutions to instances of a hard problem from optimal solutions to neighboring (i.e., locally modified) instances? For example, can we efficiently compute an optimal coloring for a graph from optimal…
When facing graph signal processing tasks, the workhorse assumption is that the graph describing the support of the signals is known. However, in many relevant applications the available graph suffers from observation errors and…
Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) face two fundamental challenges when scaled to deep architectures: oversmoothing, where node representations converge to indistinguishable vectors, and oversquashing, where information from distant nodes fails…
Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) are a predominant method for graph representation learning. However, beyond subgraph frequency estimation, their application to network motif significance-profile (SP) prediction remains under-explored, with no…
We consider the explanation problem of Graph Neural Networks (GNNs). Most existing GNN explanation methods identify the most important edges or nodes but fail to consider substructures, which are more important for graph data. The only…
We introduce the notion of a network's conduciveness, a probabilistically interpretable measure of how the network's structure allows it to be conducive to roaming agents, in certain conditions, from one portion of the network to another.…
Graph coloring is a fundamental problem in combinatorics with many applications in practice. In this problem, the vertices in a given graph must be colored by using the least number of colors in such a way that a vertex has a different…
