• Abstract summary: We propose a novel distance between distributions and signals on graphs. GFMMD is defined via an optimal witness function that is both smooth on the graph and maximizes difference in expectation. We showcase it on graph benchmark datasets as well as on single cell RNA-sequencing data analysis.

• Abstract: While numerous methods have been proposed for computing distances between probability distributions in Euclidean space, relatively little attention has been given to computing such distances for distributions on graphs. However, there has been a marked increase in data that either lies on graph (such as protein interaction networks) or can be modeled as a graph (single cell data), particularly in the biomedical sciences. Thus, it becomes important to find ways to compare signals defined on such graphs. Here, we propose Graph Fourier MMD (GFMMD), a novel distance between distributions and signals on graphs. GFMMD is defined via an optimal witness function that is both smooth on the graph and maximizes difference in expectation between the pair of distributions on the graph. We find an analytical solution to this optimization problem as well as an embedding of distributions that results from this method. We also prove several properties of this method including scale invariance and applicability to disconnected graphs. We showcase it on graph benchmark datasets as well on single cell RNA-sequencing data analysis. In the latter, we use the GFMMD-based gene embeddings to find meaningful gene clusters. We also propose a novel type of score for gene selection called "gene localization score" which helps select genes for cellular state space characterization.

  In modern machine learning it is common to encounter large graphs that arise via interactions or similarities between observations in many domains. We propose to compare and organize such datasets of graph signals by using an earth mover's distance (EMD) with a geodesic cost over the underlying graph. In each case, we show that UDEMD-based embeddings find accurate distances that are highly efficient compared to other methods.

  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.
