• Abstract: We consider the task of learning latent community structure from multiple correlated networks. First, we study the problem of learning the latent vertex correspondence between two edge-correlated stochastic block models, focusing on the regime where the average degree is logarithmic in the number of vertices. We derive the precise information-theoretic threshold for exact recovery: above the threshold there exists an estimator that outputs the true correspondence with probability close to 1, while below it no estimator can recover the true correspondence with probability bounded away from 0. As an application of our results, we show how one can exactly recover the latent communities using multiple correlated graphs in parameter regimes where it is information-theoretically impossible to do so using just a single graph.

  ErdHos-R'enyi graphs model, wherein a pair of induced subgraphs with a certain number are correlated. We prove that there exists an optimal rate for partial recovery for the number of correlated nodes. In the proof of possibility results, we propose correlated functional digraphs, which partition the edges of the intersection graph into two types of components.

  We investigate a previously overlooked phenomenon: in many cases, a densely connected, complementary graph can be found for the original graph. The denser graph may share nodes with the original graph, which offers a natural bridge for transferring selective, meaningful knowledge. We identify this setting as Graph Intersection-induced Transfer Learning (GITL), which is motivated by practical applications in e-commerce or academic co-authorship predictions.

  Block model is a canonical random graph model for clustering and community detection on network-structured data.

We prove that with an arbitrary fraction of the labels feasible throughout the parameter domain.

  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.
