Real-world networks often come with side information that can help to improve the performance of network analysis tasks such as clustering. Despite a large number of empirical and theoretical studies conducted on network clustering methods during the past decade, the added value of side information…
Relationship between agents can be conveniently represented by graphs. When these relationships have different modalities, they are better modelled by multilayer graphs where each layer is associated with one modality. Such graphs arise naturally in many contexts including biological and social netw…
We introduce a principled and theoretically sound spectral method for k-way clustering in signed graphs, where the affinity measure between nodes takes either positive or negative values. Our approach is motivated by social balance theory, where the task of clustering aims to decompose the network i…
Consider an unknown smooth function $f: [0,1] →\mathbb{R}$, and say we are given $n$ noisy $\mod 1$ samples of $f$, i.e., $y_i = (f(x_i) + \eta_i)\mod 1$ for $x_i ∈[0,1]$, where $\eta_i$ denotes noise. Given the samples $(x_i,y_i)_{i=1}^{n}$ our goal is to recover smooth, robust estimates of the…
A function f: \mathbbR^d →\mathbbR is referred to as a Sparse Additive Model (SPAM), if it is of the form f(x) = \sum_l ∈S \phi_l(x_l), where S ⊂[d], |S| ≪d. Assuming \phi_l’s and S to be unknown, the problem of estimating f from its samples has been studied extensively. In this work, we consider a…
