• Abstract: Sampling graphs is an important task in data mining. In this paper, we describe Little Ball of Fur a Python library that includes more than twenty graph sampling algorithms. Our goal is to make node, edge, and exploration-based network sampling techniques accessible to a large number of professionals, researchers, and students in a single streamlined framework. We created this framework with a focus on a coherent application public interface which has a convenient design, generic input data requirements, and reasonable baseline settings of algorithms. Here we overview these design foundations of the framework in detail with illustrative code snippets. We show the practical usability of the library by estimating various global statistics of social networks and web graphs. Experiments demonstrate that Little Ball of Fur can speed up node and whole graph embedding techniques considerably with mildly deteriorating the predictive value of distilled features.

  We introduce comgra, an open source python library for use with PyTorch. Comgra extracts data about the internal activations of a model and organizes it in a GUI. It can show both summary statistics and individual data points, compare early and late stages of training, focus on individual samples of interest, and visualize the flow of the gradient through the network.

  We propose a novel framework for defining a graph mean via embeddings in the space of smooth graph signal distributions. By finding a mean in this embedding space, we can recover a mean graph that preserves structural information. We establish the existence and uniqueness of the novel graph mean, and provide an iterative algorithm for computing it.
