• Abstract: We introduce Markov Random Geometric Graphs (MRGGs), a growth model for temporal dynamic networks. It is based on a Markovian latent space dynamic: consecutive latent points are sampled on the Euclidean Sphere using an unknown Markov kernel; and two nodes are connected with a probability depending on a unknown function of their latent geodesic distance. More precisely, at each stamp-time $k$ we add a latent point $X_k$ sampled by jumping from the previous one $X_{k-1}$ in a direction chosen uniformly $Y_k$ and with a length $r_k$ drawn from an unknown distribution called the latitude function. The connection probabilities between each pair of nodes are equal to the envelope function of the distance between these two latent points. We provide theoretical guarantees for the non-parametric estimation of the latitude and the envelope functions.We propose an efficient algorithm that achieves those non-parametric estimation tasks based on an ad-hoc Hierarchical Agglomerative Clustering approach. As a by product, we show how MRGGs can be used to detect dependence structure in growing graphs and to solve link prediction problems.

  Consider each node of a graph to be generating a data stream that is synchronized and observed at near real-time. At a change-point $tau$, a change occurs at a subset of nodes $C$, which affects the probability distribution of their associated node streams. We propose a novel kernel-based method to both detect $tau$ and localize $C$, based on the direct estimation of the likelihood-ratio between the post-change and the pre-change distributions of the node streams.

• A metric on directed graphs and Markov chains based on hitting probabilities [0.0]
  We introduce a metric on the state space of any ergodic, finite-state, time-homogeneous Markov chain. Our construction is based on hitting probabilities, with nearness in the metric space related to the transfer of random walkers from one node to another at stationarity. Notably, our metric is insensitive to shortest and average walk distances, thus giving new information compared to existing metrics.

  An important challenge in the field of exponential random graphs (ERGs) is the fitting of non-trivial ERGs on large graphs. We propose an approximative framework to such non-trivial ERGs that result in dyadic independence (i.e., edge independent) distributions. Our methods are scalable to sparse graphs consisting of millions of nodes.

Our main contribution is to propose a sweep line algorithm to compute AE emphexactly in log-quadratic time, where a naive implementation would be cubic. We show that AE and AW perform well in various experimental settings at a fraction of the computational cost of popular GW approximations.
