All societies have been much more bipolar over the past few years, particularly after the emergence of online social networks and media. In fact, the gap between the two ends of social spectrum is going to be even deeper after the spread of…

Predicting links in complex networks has been one of the essential topics within the realm of data mining and science discovery over the past few years. This problem remains an attempt to identify future, deleted, and redundant links using…

In this work, we propose Random Walk-steered Majority Undersampling (RWMaU), which undersamples the majority points of a class imbalanced dataset, in order to balance the classes. Rather than marking the majority points which belong to the…

Social network analysis provides meaningful information about behavior of network members that can be used for diverse applications such as classification, link prediction. However, network analysis is computationally expensive because of…

We are interested in recovering information on a stochastic block model from the subgraph discovered by an exploring random walk. Stochastic block models correspond to populations structured into a finite number of types, where two…

Graph embedding, representing local and global neighborhood information by numerical vectors, is a crucial part of the mathematical modeling of a wide range of real-world systems. Among the embedding algorithms, random walk-based algorithms…

Partially-observed network data collected by link-tracing based sampling methods is often being studied to obtain the characteristics of a large complex network. However, little attention has been paid to sampling from directed networks…

Network models have been widely used to study diverse systems and analyze their dynamic behaviors. Given the structural variability of networks, an intriguing question arises: Can we infer the type of system represented by a network based…

Graph embeddings are low dimensional representations of nodes, edges or whole graphs. Such representations allow for data in a network format to be used along with machine learning models for a variety of tasks (e.g., node classification),…

The rapid growth in feature dimension may introduce implicit associations between features and labels in multi-label datasets, making the relationships between features and labels increasingly complex. Moreover, existing methods often adopt…

Random walks find extensive application across various complex network domains, including embedding generation and link prediction. Despite the widespread utilization of random walks, the precise impact of distinct biases on embedding…

Diffusion-based classifiers such as those relying on the Personalized PageRank and the Heat kernel, enjoy remarkable classification accuracy at modest computational requirements. Their performance however is affected by the extent to which…

The random walk with choice is a well known variation to the random walk that first selects a subset of $d$ neighbours nodes and then decides to move to the node which maximizes the value of a certain metric; this metric captures the number…

Eigenvalues of a graph are of high interest in graph analytics for Big Data due to their relevance to many important properties of the graph including network resilience, community detection and the speed of viral propagation. Accurate…

Analyzing social graphs with limited data access is challenging for third-party researchers. To address this challenge, a number of algorithms that estimate structural properties via a random walk have been developed. However, most existing…

The study of vertex centrality measures is a key aspect of network analysis. Naturally, such centrality measures have been generalized to groups of vertices; for popular measures it was shown that the problem of finding the most central…

Automatic feature learning algorithms are at the forefront of modern day machine learning research. We present a novel algorithm, supervised Q-walk, which applies Q-learning to generate random walks on graphs such that the walks prove to be…

Link-analysis algorithms, such as PageRank, are instrumental in understanding the structural dynamics of networks by evaluating the importance of individual vertices based on their connectivity. Recently, with the rising importance of…

Random walk-based sampling methods are gaining popularity and importance in characterizing large networks. While powerful, they suffer from the slow mixing problem when the graph is loosely connected, which results in poor estimation…

Class imbalance poses a significant challenge in machine learning (ML), often leading to biased models favouring the majority class. In this paper, we propose GAT-RWOS, a novel graph-based oversampling method that combines the strengths of…
