A survey on the densest subgraph problem and its variants

T Lanciano, A Miyauchi, A Fazzone, F Bonchi - ACM Computing Surveys, 2024 - dl.acm.org
The Densest Subgraph Problem requires us to find, in a given graph, a subset of vertices
whose induced subgraph maximizes a measure of density. The problem has received a …

Entity linking meets word sense disambiguation: a unified approach

A Moro, A Raganato, R Navigli - Transactions of the Association for …, 2014 - direct.mit.edu
Abstract Entity Linking (EL) and Word Sense Disambiguation (WSD) both address the lexical
ambiguity of language. But while the two tasks are pretty similar, they differ in a fundamental …

Scalable motif-aware graph clustering

CE Tsourakakis, J Pachocki… - Proceedings of the 26th …, 2017 - dl.acm.org
We develop new methods based on graph motifs for graph clustering, allowing more
efficient detection of communities within networks. We focus on triangles within graphs, but …

The k-clique densest subgraph problem

C Tsourakakis - Proceedings of the 24th international conference on …, 2015 - dl.acm.org
Numerous graph mining applications rely on detecting subgraphs which are large near-
cliques. Since formulations that are geared towards finding large near-cliques are hard and …

Denser than the densest subgraph: extracting optimal quasi-cliques with quality guarantees

Benford's law describes the distribution of the first digit of numbers appearing in a wide
variety of numerical data, including tax records, and election outcomes, and has been used …

Truncated power method for sparse eigenvalue problems

XT Yuan, T Zhang - The Journal of Machine Learning Research, 2013 - dl.acm.org
This paper considers the sparse eigenvalue problem, which is to extract dominant (largest)
sparse eigenvectors with at most k non-zero components. We propose a simple yet effective …
