Community detection, which aims to cluster $N$ nodes in a given graph into $r$ distinct groups based on the observed undirected edges, is an important problem in network data analysis. In this paper, the popular stochastic block model (SBM)…
The problem of recovering the sparsity pattern of a fixed but unknown vector $\beta^* \in \real^p based on a set of $n$ noisy observations arises in a variety of settings, including subset selection in regression, graphical model selection,…
We study the problem of learning tree-structured Markov random fields (MRF) on discrete random variables with common support when the observations are corrupted by a $k$-ary symmetric noise channel with unknown probability of error. For…
Many geometric estimation problems take the form of synchronization over the special Euclidean group: estimate the values of a set of poses given noisy measurements of a subset of their pairwise relative transforms. This problem is…
We characterize the effectiveness of a classical algorithm for recovering the Markov graph of a general discrete pairwise graphical model from i.i.d. samples. The algorithm is (appropriately regularized) maximum conditional log-likelihood,…
Numerical experiments in literature on compressed sensing have indicated that the reweighted $l_1$ minimization performs exceptionally well in recovering sparse signal. In this paper, we develop exact recovery conditions and algorithm for…
We analyze the performance of spectral clustering for community extraction in stochastic block models. We show that, under mild conditions, spectral clustering applied to the adjacency matrix of the network can consistently recover hidden…
We study the robust one-bit compressed sensing problem whose goal is to design an algorithm that faithfully recovers any sparse target vector $\theta_0\in\mathbb{R}^d$ \textit{uniformly} via $m$ quantized noisy measurements. Specifically,…
We study sharp detection thresholds for degree corrections in Stochastic Block Models in the context of a goodness of fit problem, and explore the effect of the unknown community assignment (a high dimensional nuisance parameter) and the…
In this work, we propose an efficient two-stage algorithm solving a joint problem of correlation detection and partial alignment recovery between two Gaussian databases. Correlation detection is a hypothesis testing problem; under the null…
In this paper we consider the cluster estimation problem under the Stochastic Block Model. We show that the semidefinite programming (SDP) formulation for this problem achieves an error rate that decays exponentially in the signal-to-noise…
Weak lensing convergence maps - upon which higher order statistics can be calculated - can be recovered from observations of the shear field by solving the lensing inverse problem. For typical surveys this inverse problem is ill-posed…
Random-walk based network embedding algorithms like DeepWalk and node2vec are widely used to obtain Euclidean representation of the nodes in a network prior to performing downstream inference tasks. However, despite their impressive…
The problem of population recovery refers to estimating a distribution based on incomplete or corrupted samples. Consider a random poll of sample size $n$ conducted on a population of individuals, where each pollee is asked to answer $d$…
Generative neural networks (GNNs) have gained renown for efficaciously capturing intrinsic low-dimensional structure in natural images. Here, we investigate the subgaussian demixing problem for two Lipschitz signals, with GNN demixing as a…
In this paper, we study the weighted stochastic matching problem. Let $G=(V, E)$ be a given edge-weighted graph and let its realization $\mathcal{G}$ be a random subgraph of $G$ that includes each edge $e\in E$ independently with a known…
We consider the problem of sparse normal means estimation in a distributed setting with communication constraints. We assume there are $M$ machines, each holding $d$-dimensional observations of a $K$-sparse vector $\mu$ corrupted by…
Stochastic Block Models (SBMs) are a fundamental tool for community detection in network analysis. But little theoretical work exists on the statistical performance of Bayesian SBMs, especially when the community count is unknown. This…
The stochastic block model is a popular tool for detecting community structures in network data. Detecting the difference between two community structures is an important issue for stochastic block models. However, the two-sample test has…
In the high dimensional Stochastic Blockmodel for a random network, the number of clusters (or blocks) K grows with the number of nodes N. Two previous studies have examined the statistical estimation performance of spectral clustering and…
