The Densest $k$-Subgraph (D$k$S) is a fundamental combinatorial problem known for its theoretical hardness and breadth of applications. Recently, Lu et al. (AAAI 2025) introduced a penalty-based non-convex relaxation that achieves promising empirical performance; however, a rigorous theoretical unde…
Real-world spatio-temporal data is often incomplete or inaccurate due to various data loading delays. For example, a location-disease-time tensor of case counts can have multiple delayed updates of recent temporal slices for some locations or diseases. Recovering such missing or noisy (under-reporte…
We present a new algorithm for identifying the transition and emission probabilities of a hidden Markov model (HMM) from the emitted data. Expectation-maximization becomes computationally prohibitive for long observation records, which are often required for identification. The new algorithm is part…
