Software Implementation of A Condition-Based Graph Structure Recognition methodXu, Chuan-Xin 08 May 2008 (has links)
In state-of-the-art software library, such as Standard Template Library (STL) , they support a number of data models, for example, set, map, sequence, etc. Since graph data processing is widely used in combinatorial processing and optimization programs, in this research, we designed software implementation of a condition-based graph structure recognition method. This design consists of four kinds of condition functions specific to graph structures, control functions of structure recognition operation flow, and programming interface to facilitate programs writing various efficient graph structure recognition programs. We implemented a software library of this graph structure recognition method to support program design containing graph data and processing.

Spanning tree modulus: deflation and a hierarchical graph structureClemens, Jason January 1900 (has links)
Doctor of Philosophy / Department of Mathematics / Nathan Albin / The concept of discrete $p$-modulus provides a general framework for understanding arbitrary families of objects on a graph. The $p$-modulus provides a sense of ``structure'' of the underlying graph, with different families of objects leading to different insight into the graph's structure. This dissertation builds on this idea, with an emphasis on the family of spanning trees and the underlying graph structure that spanning tree modulus exposes.
This dissertation provides a review of the probabilistic interpretation of modulus. In the context of spanning trees, this interpretation rephrases modulus as the problem of choosing a probability mass function on the spanning trees so that two independent, identically distributed random spanning trees have expected overlap as small as possible.
A theoretical lower bound on the expected overlap is shown. Graphs that attain this lower bound are called homogeneous and have the property that there exists a probability mass function that gives every edge equal likelihood to appear in a random tree. Moreover, any nonhomogeneous graph necessarily has a homogeneous subgraph (called a homogeneous core), which is shown to split the modulus problem into two smaller subproblems through a process called deflation.
Spanning tree modulus and the process of deflation establish a type of hierarchical structure in the underlying graph that is similar to the concept of core-periphery structure found in the literature. Using this, one can see an alternative way of decomposing a graph into its hierarchical community components using homogeneous cores and a related concept: minimum feasible partitions.
This dissertation also introduces a simple greedy algorithm for computing the spanning tree modulus that utilizes any efficient algorithm for finding minimum spanning trees. A theoretical proof of the convergence rate is provided, along with computational examples.

Mining Tera-Scale Graphs: Theory, Engineering and DiscoveriesKang, U 01 May 2012 (has links)
How do we find patterns and anomalies, on graphs with billions of nodes and edges, which do not fit in memory? How to use parallelism for such Tera- or Peta-scale graphs? In this thesis, we propose PEGASUS, a large scale graph mining system implemented on the top of the HADOOP platform, the open source version of MAPREDUCE. PEGASUS includes algorithms which help us spot patterns and anomalous behaviors in large graphs.
PEGASUS enables the structure analysis on large graphs. We unify many different structure analysis algorithms, including the analysis on connected components, PageRank, and radius/diameter, into a general primitive called GIM-V. GIM-V is highly optimized, achieving good scale-up on the number of edges and available machines. We discover surprising patterns using GIM-V, including the 7-degrees of separation in one of the largest publicly available Web graphs, with 7 billion edges.
PEGASUS also enables the inference and the spectral analysis on large graphs. We design an efficient distributed belief propagation algorithm which infer the states of unlabeled nodes given a set of labeled nodes. We also develop an eigensolver for computing top k eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the adjacency matrices of very large graphs. We use the eigensolver to discover anomalous adult advertisers in the who-follows-whom Twitter graph with 3 billion edges. In addition, we develop an efficient tensor decomposition algorithm and use it to analyze a large knowledge base tensor.
Finally, PEGASUS allows the management of large graphs. We propose efficient graph storage and indexing methods to answer graph mining queries quickly. We also develop an edge layout algorithm for better compressing graphs.

Graph Structured Normal Means InferenceSharpnack, James 01 May 2013 (has links)
This thesis addresses statistical estimation and testing of signals over a graph when measurements are noisy and high-dimensional. Graph structured patterns appear in applications as diverse as sensor networks, virology in human networks, congestion in internet routers, and advertising in social networks. We will develop asymptotic guarantees of the performance of statistical estimators and tests, by stating conditions for consistency by properties of the graph (e.g. graph spectra). The goal of this thesis is to demonstrate theoretically that by exploiting the graph structure one can achieve statistical consistency in extremely noisy conditions.
We begin with the study of a projection estimator called Laplacian eigenmaps, and find that eigenvalue concentration plays a central role in the ability to estimate graph structured patterns. We continue with the study of the edge lasso, a least squares procedure with total variation penalty, and determine combinatorial conditions under which changepoints (edges across which the underlying signal changes) on the graph are recovered. We will shift focus to testing for anomalous activations in the graph, using the scan statistic relaxations, the spectral scan statistic and the graph ellipsoid scan statistic. We will also show how one can form a decomposition of the graph from a spanning tree which will lead to a test for activity in the graph. This will lead to the construction of a spanning tree wavelet basis, which can be used to localize activations on the graph.

Addressing Challenges in Graphical Models: MAP estimation, Evidence, Non-Normality, and Subject-Specific InferenceSagar K N Ksheera (15295831) 17 April 2023 (has links)
<p>Graphs are a natural choice for understanding the associations between variables, and assuming a probabilistic embedding for the graph structure leads to a variety of graphical models that enable us to understand these associations even further. In the realm of high-dimensional data, where the number of associations between interacting variables is far greater than the available number of data points, the goal is to infer a sparse graph. In this thesis, we make contributions in the domain of Bayesian graphical models, where our prior belief on the graph structure, encoded via uncertainty on the model parameters, enables the estimation of sparse graphs.</p>
<p><br></p>
<p>We begin with the Gaussian Graphical Model (GGM) in Chapter 2, one of the simplest and most famous graphical models, where the joint distribution of interacting variables is assumed to be Gaussian. In GGMs, the conditional independence among variables is encoded in the inverse of the covariance matrix, also known as the precision matrix. Under a Bayesian framework, we propose a novel prior--penalty dual called the `graphical horseshoe-like' prior and penalty, to estimate precision matrix. We also establish the posterior convergence of the precision matrix estimate and the frequentist consistency of the maximum a posteriori (MAP) estimator.</p>
<p><br></p>
<p>In Chapter 3, we develop a general framework based on local linear approximation for MAP estimation of the precision matrix in GGMs. This general framework holds true for any graphical prior, where the element-wise priors can be written as a Laplace scale mixture. As an application of the framework, we perform MAP estimation of the precision matrix under the graphical horseshoe penalty.</p>
<p><br></p>
<p>In Chapter 4, we focus on graphical models where the joint distribution of interacting variables cannot be assumed Gaussian. Motivated by the quantile graphical models, where the Gaussian likelihood assumption is relaxed, we draw inspiration from the domain of precision medicine, where personalized inference is crucial to tailor individual-specific treatment plans. With an aim to infer Directed Acyclic Graphs (DAGs), we propose a novel quantile DAG learning framework, where the DAGs depend on individual-specific covariates, making personalized inference possible. We demonstrate the potential of this framework in the regime of precision medicine by applying it to infer protein-protein interaction networks in Lung adenocarcinoma and Lung squamous cell carcinoma.</p>
<p><br></p>
<p>Finally, we conclude this thesis in Chapter 5, by developing a novel framework to compute the marginal likelihood in a GGM, addressing a longstanding open problem. Under this framework, we can compute the marginal likelihood for a broad class of priors on the precision matrix, where the element-wise priors on the diagonal entries can be written as gamma or scale mixtures of gamma random variables and those on the off-diagonal terms can be represented as normal or scale mixtures of normal. This result paves new roads for model selection using Bayes factors and tuning of prior hyper-parameters.</p>
