• Title: Scaling Graph Clustering with Distributed Sketches
• Authors: Benjamin W. Priest, Alec Dunton, Geoffrey Sanders
• Abstract summary: We present a method inspired by spectral clustering where we instead use matrix sketches derived from random dimension-reducing projections. We show that our method produces embeddings that yield performant clustering results given a fully-dynamic block model stream. We also discuss the effects of block model parameters upon the required dimensionality of the subsequent embeddings, and show how random projections could significantly improve the performance of graph clustering in distributed memory.

• Abstract: The unsupervised learning of community structure, in particular the partitioning vertices into clusters or communities, is a canonical and well-studied problem in exploratory graph analysis. However, like most graph analyses the introduction of immense scale presents challenges to traditional methods. Spectral clustering in distributed memory, for example, requires hundreds of expensive bulk-synchronous communication rounds to compute an embedding of vertices to a few eigenvectors of a graph associated matrix. Furthermore, the whole computation may need to be repeated if the underlying graph changes some low percentage of edge updates. We present a method inspired by spectral clustering where we instead use matrix sketches derived from random dimension-reducing projections. We show that our method produces embeddings that yield performant clustering results given a fully-dynamic stochastic block model stream using both the fast Johnson-Lindenstrauss and CountSketch transforms. We also discuss the effects of stochastic block model parameters upon the required dimensionality of the subsequent embeddings, and show how random projections could significantly improve the performance of graph clustering in distributed memory.

  Multi-view clustering methods based on anchor graph factorization lack adequate cluster interpretability for the decomposed matrix. We address this limitation by using non-negative tensor factorization to decompose an anchor graph tensor that combines anchor graphs from multiple views.

  spectral clustering is popular and attractive due to the remarkable performance, easy implementation, and strong adaptability. We propose MeanCut as the objective function and greedily optimize it in degree descending order for a nondestructive graph partition. The validity of our algorithm is demonstrated by testifying on real-world benchmarks and application of face recognition.

  We consider the problem of modelling high-dimensional distributions and generating new examples of data with complex relational feature structure coherent with a graph skeleton. The model we propose tackles the problem of generating the data features constrained by the specific graph structure of each data point by splitting the task into two phases. In the first it models the distribution of features associated with the nodes of the given graph, in the second it complements the edge features conditionally on the node features.

  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.
