Many optimization, inference, and learning tasks can be accomplished efficiently by means of decentralized processing algorithms where the network topology (i.e., the graph) plays a critical role in enabling the interactions among neighboring nodes. There ...
In diffusion social learning over weakly-connected graphs, it has been shown recently that influential agents shape the beliefs of non-influential agents. This paper analyzes this mechanism more closely and addresses two main questions. First, the article ...
Network embedding automatically learns to encode a graph into multi-dimensional vectors. The embedded representation appears to outperform hand-crafted features in many downstream machine learning tasks. There are a plethora of network embedding approaches ...
Graph processing systems are used in a wide variety of fields, ranging from biology to social networks.
Algorithms to mine graphs incur many random accesses, and the sparse nature of the graphs of interest, exacerbates this. As DRAM sustains high bandwidt ...
This master thesis provides in-depth explanations of how deep learning and graph theory can be used together to perform pointwise classification in 3D point clouds obtained by combinations of geospatial images. That scene understanding problem arises in a ...
This paper formulates a multitask optimization problem where agents in the network have individual objectives to meet, or individual parameter vectors to estimate, subject to a smoothness condition over the graph. The smoothness requirement softens the tra ...
In diffusion social learning over weakly-connected graphs, it has been shown that influential agents end up shaping the beliefs of non-influential agents. In this paper, we analyse this control mechanism more closely and reveal some critical properties. In ...
State-of-the-art data analysis tools have to deal with high-dimensional data. Fortunately, the inherent dimensionality of data is often much smaller, as it has an internal structure limiting its degrees of freedom. In most cases, this structure can be appr ...
Graph processing systems are used in a wide variety of fields, ranging from biology to social networks, and a large number of such systems have been described in the recent literature. We perform a systematic comparison of various techniques proposed to sp ...
In this paper, we study diffusion social learning over weakly connected graphs. We show that the asymmetric flow of information hinders the learning abilities of certain agents regardless of their local observations. Under some circumstances that we clarif ...
